Portfolio

From contaminated land to strategic redevelopment. In 2021, Larendael took ownership of the ADM site, one of the largest contiguous lots in Amsterdam.

This is the Netherlands' first energy-generating 'last mile' xxl logistics city hub, with multiple floors and strategically located on the North Sea Canal and close to the capital city of Amsterdam.

In a stately mansion dating from 1884, on the Amstel in Amsterdam, we have sustainably renovated an apartment complex.
