The Gent

The Gent: an office building in the heart of Amsterdam

The Gent is the latest, state-of-the-art office building in Amsterdam, which will be completed this year. The fully modernised office building is located on the Herengracht in Amsterdam, right in the centre of this cosmopolitan city. The Gent is special in its type and size, combining a historic, monumental façade with the brand-new modern office spaces at the rear of the building. When you include the imposing atrium and spacious garden, The Gent certainly offers a unique working environment.

The Gent has been completely renovated to the very highest sustainability standards. This unique office building has an A+++ energy label, uses only green energy and has no natural gas connection. On top of that, it has a BREEAM Excellent certification and a WELL Platinum certification.

Historic charm meets modern comfort

Besides the beautiful, historic façade, the monumental rooms of this former bank building have been preserved as well. The Gent is equipped with every modern convenience and comfort, with a spectacular atrium and over 6,000 sq m of high-end office space. In addition, The Gent offers a green city garden, featuring a lavish pavilion and a spacious pond covering the glass ceiling. All this in the unique and multifunctional element of The Gent: the lower ground floor.

Location and accessibility

The Gent is located in the Amsterdam Canal District, in the bustling heart of Amsterdam. It’s within walking distance of Dam Square, Central Station and many well-known shopping areas. In the immediate vicinity of The Gent, you will find numerous lunchrooms, bars and top restaurants, as well as many cultural attractions, including museums and theatres. This makes The Gent not only the perfect place to work and meet people, but also the ideal place for relaxation and fun.

The Gent is perfectly accessible for (inter)national companies because of the prime location. Amsterdam Central Station in just 10 minutes by tram, while the Noord-Zuidlijn (North-South line) is an eight-minute walk away, and you can be at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol within 20 minutes. The strategic location, near to Amsterdam Central Station, means that you have a direct connection to The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht. A nice extra touch: The Gent also has indoor bicycle storage with showers.

Office spaces

The Gent consists of seven stories, offering large open office floors that can be furnished flexibly and completely as desired. Light from the atrium, the cutting-edge design, high ceilings of almost 4.7 metres, and the climate ceiling with LED lighting ensures that every office space meets the highest level of finishing. The unique lower ground floor is filled with natural light, through the atrium, additional skylights and the glass water ceiling of the spacious pond. It is 1,200 sq m in size and can be divided and used to suit any need. Ideal for a combination of open office space, workshop rooms, flexible workplaces and conferences, but also for organising dinners, drinks and cinema experiences for both clients and colleagues.
