New Market in Rotterdam Shaped Like A Tunnel: A New Approach To Urban Architecture 

Designed by MVRDV and developed by Provast, this new public market place was recently announced by the mayor of Rotterdam as an upcoming project of the city. The construction already started and this colossal building will soon be one of the main attractions in Rotterdam. The hall of the market will feature giant LCD screens playing fruit and vegetable images. Another striking detail is its arch, composed of ten floors with no less than 228 apartments, half for purchasing, half for rentals. Restaurants and shopping stores will be found on the first two levels and a giant supermarket will be accessible underground, as well as plenty of parking lots (1200 parking spaces). We our looking forward to visiting this majestic upcoming construction.-via
