T his building is home to Royal Nedlloyd, a transportation and logistics firm headquartered in the Netherlands. The building, itself, is 288-feet tall, and is one of the largest in the city of Rotterdam. Not the tallest, but the largest in terms of square footage, with over two-million square feet of space available.

If you've ever seen Jackie Chan's movie 'Jackie Chan's Who Am I?', you'll recognize this building. In it, after participating on a fight on the roof (which is noteworthy, not only for the stunts but for the parts of the Rotterdam skyline you can see) he slides down the angled part. I still don't know how he does that stunt. So if you want to see this building, without going to the Netherlands, rent that movie. :)
