NEW DEVELOPMENT AT HEMBRUG

Work in building 430 is still ongoing. The building is part of the new museum that will be opened in phases. The museum will permanently display work from great international artists.

In recent months the floor has been given a new epoxy coating and the walls have been plastered. This gives the building an industrial look while retaining the style and unique aspects.

Various work has also been carried out in the toilet area. The blue and yellow tiles have been laid and the cubicles have been placed.

Building 430 contains two small office units that are currently being refurbished and painted.

FILM CLUB NEAR TO THE IJ

FC Hyena is a colorful boutique cinema with a restaurant in Amsterdam-Noord. At Estadium we believe that creative companies are important in this area. The film club was founded by film enthusiast Lotte Smit, her husband Joris Brieffies and restaurant entrepreneurs Niels Wouters and Marco Birzak from Hotel De Goudfazant.

Estadium is convinced that creative companies are an important addition to the Hamerkop. The film club, climbing center and restaurants bring diversity and attract different people to the site.

FC Hyena rents a space at Aambeeldstraat 24. The film club has a wine bar and a restaurant where visitors can have a snack and a drink before or after the film. There are two halls where old and new films are shown for all ages.

After the purchase in 2015, the Hamerkop is managed by Estadium. On behalf of the owners, the space was rented to FC Hyena.  

HEAD OFFICE DATASNIPPER IN AMSTERDAM-NOORD

The Unicorn DataSnipper is based in the former VanMoof’s head office since 2023. The software company, which currently has 140 employees, also opened an office in New York. DataSnipper has the ambition to expand by doubling the number of employees and opening new offices in Kuala Lumpur, Mexico and japan. According to Vidya Peters (CEO DataSnipper), Amsterdam is the perfect location to attract new talent and achieve growth.

 DataSnipper was founded in 2017 by three Dutch entrepreneurs Maarten Alblas, Jonas Ruyter and Kai Bakker. The company made the news early 2024 after securing a 100 million investment form Index Ventures and qualified as Unicorn since then. The investment fund will receive a 10% share in the start-up.

DataSnipper rents 2,800 m² of office space in Amsterdam Noord at the Hamerkop site. The building is located near Hotel De Goudfazant and Hangar.

NEW RESTAURANT AT THE HAMERKOP IN AMSTERDAM-NOORD

With the arrival of Barracuda, the Hamerkop has a new restaurant. Barracuda was founded in 2023 by Daan Meeuwig and serves seasonal local fish species for an affordable price.

The restaurant has moved into one of the former industrial spaces at the Hamerkop site on the Aambeeldstraat in Amsterdam-Noord. The Hamerkop is a 15-minute walk from Noorderpark metro station and is attracting more and more people due the mix of urban creative activities of entrepreneurs with a strong presence on social media.

After the purchase in 2015, Estadium managed the Hamerkop site on behalf of the owner and rented the space to Barracuda in 2023.

MUSEUM GARDEN IN PROGRESS

For the new museum that we are developing on the Hembrug site in Zaandam, we started the construction of the museum garden in the spring of 2023. The garden designed by the internationally renowned architect Piet Oudolf forms the natural connection between the various museum buildings. The garden is a gift from the museum to the environment and to the municipality of Zaanstad, its inhabitants and visitors. The garden will be freely and publicly accessible to everyone during the course of the year.

DEVELOPMENT HEMBRUG STARTED

From the beginning of 2022, we are working on Gebouw 430. This is the first building of a new museum, which will be located in several existing historic buildings on the Hembrug site. The facade and the authentic curved roofs of Gebouw 430 will be restored to their former glory by bringing back 800 steel windows and installing new steel facade parts made from recycled oil drums. The windows and concrete work will also be tackled.

The new museum will be opened in phases in the coming years. Each building will permanently display work by an international artist. In total, the museum will consist of approximately 10 buildings and ultimately have a total of at least 12,000 m² of exhibition space. The museum will have an international level in size and collection.

Next to the museum we are working on the national monumental building 8, the former head office of the Hembrug site. This building will be opened in the course of 2023 and focuses specifically on companies from the creative sector. The building will have 16 modular studio spaces spread over the ground floor and first floor.

VANMOOF HEADQUARTERS AT HAMERKOP

At the end of 2021 Van Moof moved its head office to the Aambeeldstraat – part of the Hamerkop site in Amsterdam Noord. The 2,800 m² building is located on the Hamerkop site where Hotel de Goudfazant, Skatepark Noord, FC Hyena, Monk Boulder Gym, Restaurant Hangar, Candid Group, Broeinest and Boat Bike Tours are located.

VanMoof was founded in 2009 by Taco and Ties Carlier, two Dutch brothers who dreamt up the perfect city bike. Today, its sleek, multi-award winning e-bikes offer a high-tech and feature-rich experience for a global community of riders. As the world’s fastest growing e-bike brand, VanMoof is on course to redefine the future of urban mobility. VanMoof sells its e-bikes directly to consumers online, with Brand Stores in over 20 cities worldwide, from Paris and New York, to San Francisco and Tokyo. Its ever-expanding service network of Service Hubs and certified workshops spans across 50 cities.

VanMoof has rented the building for its international headquarters.

Estadium Beheer has been managing the 40.000 m² Hamerkop site on behalf of the institutional owner since the acquisition. On behalf of the owner, Estadium leased the building to VanMoof.

ACQUISITION OF INNER CITY APARTMENTS

On behalf of a family office, we have purchased a new housing development in the centre of Alkmaar. The project comprises 15 apartments that are built and operated entirely sustainable.

The project will be delivered in Q3 2022 to the buyer who will place them in their family investment portfolio.

LOGISTICS PORTFOLIO SOLD

On behalf of the private owner, we sold a portfolio consisting of 4 logistics centers in an off market transaction to Melcombe Partners. The buildings are located in Groningen and Vianen and are let to various tenants, including GLS, Van Duuren and Br8. It was Melcombe Partners' first purchase in the Netherlands.

Estadium initiated and guided the transaction on behalf of the sellers.

HEMBRUG INDUSTRIAL ESTATE

Since the beginning of 2021, Estadium has been responsible for activating, optimizing and managing the 67 buildings and associated plots of land that are owned by LIFEWORLD and that are part of the Hembrug site in Zaandam. Hembrug is a monumental industrial estate in the municipality of Zaanstad located on the North Sea Canal and Zijkanaal that was sold by the government in 2018 through a tender procedure. The site was used as a munitions factory until its closure in 2003.

In the coming years, Estadium will focus on further developing and improving the buildings and infrastructure and attracting new users. A museum of contemporary art will be realized on part of the site, spread over several buildings on the site.

In total, this concerns approximately 43,555 m² of buildings, of which 8 of the 67 buildings are municipal monuments and 17 of the 67 national monuments. The buildings form the DNA of the Hembrug site and determine the appearance of the entire area.

Estadium represents the interests of the owner LIFEWORLD and is responsible for communication and implementation of the plots and buildings. The focus is on companies and entrepreneurs in the art, culture and creative sector.

RESIDENTIAL SALES

From the beginning of 2021 we started selling individual homes from our management portfolio. The houses are all located within the Amsterdam Ring and with the main focus in Amsterdam South and Watergraafsmeer. The homes have been part of our rental portfolio for years and the sale in the event of vacancy is the implementation of a changed strategic investment policy to achieve a more balanced investment portfolio.

The sales activities are separate from the regular letting of homes from the core portfolio.

THE MOVEABLE VILLAGE

Estadium is the initiator and founder of The Moveable Village, a housing concept consisting of homes that can be placed complete with facilities for a certain period of time for temporary housing. The Moveable Village develops, operates and manages the housing, infrastructure and facilities during the term. The homes are sustainably produced and can be installed in various locations.

We are currently working on a number of Moveable Villages throughout the Netherlands and for different target groups, ranging from labor migrants, starters on the housing market, seniors and urban workforce.

The founding partners of TMV all have a long experience in the exploitation, development and realization of temporary housing concepts.

Industrial Heritage development sold

After being in private ownership for over 70 years, we sold the buildings located at the Scheepmakershaven in Oud Beijerland to Van Wijnen Projectontwikkeling.

The building at the Scheepmakershaven is located in the center of Oud Beijerland and was one of the 3 factories of N.V. Confectiefabriek Em. Herztberger. The company that celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1964 finally ended its business activities in the Netherlands in the 1980s. In the years that followed, the building, which was originally built in 1911 as a cigar factory “Het Wapen van OudBeijerland”, has been used by various retail chains.

Van Wijnen Projectontwikkeling has bought the building at the Scheepmakershaven to develop it into a housing complex in the coming years, striving to maintain its industrial appearance.

The two supermarket companies Marqt and Jumbo are new tenants in the property and use this location to deliver to their own stores or consumers within the Metropool Regio Amsterdam (MRA). Due to the proximity of the inner city the Gyroscoop location is ideal for the use of 100% electric transport. The location will increase in importance in the near future as soon as the realization of the planned 70,000 homes in the adjacent Havenstad project is started.
