Nieuwe Werk, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1888 apartment on the Westzeedijk sits in one of Rotterdam's most elegant streets, with the Euromast and the Park within a couple of streets away.

Nieuwe Werk is a compact, upscale enclave between the Maas and the Museumpark. With an address density of over 4,000 per km², it is intensely urban, yet the Park is just a five-minute walk away. The population is young and mobile, mostly one-person households, with few families. There are no resident reviews available, but the figures speak for themselves: average incomes are high, and the housing stock is dominated by pre-war buildings. This is the Nieuwe Werk neighbourhood at its finest.
Your daily bread run is to Albert Heijn, just around the corner on the Westzeedijk. For a wider selection, AH to go and SPAR are a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Rotterdamse Schoolvereniging, is a five-minute walk, and the Erasmiaans Gymnasium is about the same distance. The Park is on your doorstep for a morning jog, and the Museumpark with its museums and restaurants is a ten-minute walk. All this falls within the municipality of Rotterdam, which keeps the city's amenities close.
