Steur building

New owner for the iconic Steurgebouw

June 3, 2025

Steurgebouw, which was part of the old Rotterdam Electricity Plant (EfG), was purchased in 2021 by real estate investor Oscar Middendorp.

When Oscar set his first steps in Steurgebouw, he immediately saw the potential, possibilities and opportunities it had to offer.

The condition of the building at the time left much to be desired on several fronts: it was unsafe, not sustainable, did not meet the requirements of the Building Decree and there were the necessary improvements in terms of aesthetics. Oscar Middendorp knew what he had to do: Steurgebouw had to be completely renovated into a safe, sustainable and inspiring building for tenants, users and visitors.

This was the start of a major renovation project, full of challenges. No opportunity was left unused. After a period of more than 4 years, the Steurgebouw was transformed, with a great deal of love, courage and entrepreneurial spirit, into the exciting, iconic building it is today – with an A++ energy label. Together with a team of specialists and permanent contractor Wuister Projecten, the monumental Steurgebouw has become the beating heart of the Galileipark in M4H. It offers workspaces to a diverse group of innovative and creative tenants and makers and is now fully let.

For Oscar Middendorp, this is where it ends. He will focus on new challenges and other projects. With full confidence, he transfers the passion, energy and entrepreneurial spirit that made this transition a great success to the new owner: Havenbedrijf Rotterdam N.V.

For Havenbedrijf, the purchase of Steurgebouw was a logical choice. They are very active in the area development within M4H and the Galilei Park – where Steurgebouw is located – is an important part of those plans. Steurgebouw will be able to develop further with Havenbedrijf as a strategic new owner.

Oscar Middendorp would like to thank all tenants, users, visitors, suppliers and the fantastic “Steur Team” for their trust, cooperation and – above all – their shared love for the iconic Steurgebouw.

He also wishes Havenbedrijf every success with the future of Steurgebouw.
