Sustainable Polder Roof Garden opened

Feb 15, 2018


On Wednesday 24 January, Mayor Pauline Krikke opened the World Trade Center The Hague’s sustainable polder roof garden with water catchment facility. It is the first flat roof in The Hague to be turned into a polder roof garden. In December 2016, WTC The Hague, owned by Bouwinvest Dutch Institutional Office Fund, was the first multi-tenant building in the Netherlands to be awarded the prestigious BREEAM-NL In-Use Excellent sustainability award. The conversion of the parking garage’s flat roof into a roof garden is part of WTC The Hague’s unique journey to even greater sustainability. The Mayor calls the roof garden and water catchment facility a gain for the city, an inspiration for other companies and the perfect example of sustainability.
