The Dockside apartment complex, ideally located near the heart of the historic city centre of Alkmaar in the Netherlands, has been completed. With its pleasant views, charming rooftop gardens and surrounding waterways, the old Kwakelhuis building has been redeveloped into an attractive residential space.

Dockside - Alkmaar

The offices that once stood there have been demolished and replaced by 135 high-quality rental and owner-occupied apartments as well as five urban villas. Floor-to-ceiling glass facades ensure abundant daylight all round.

Since the glass facades are floor-to-ceiling, fall-through injury-resistant laminated glass was chosen. Stopray Vision 62/33 solar control glass from AGC Glass Europe delivers thermal and acoustic insulation while maintaining comfort and providing an unparalleled view of the city's rich heritage.
Moreover, Thermobel Stopray Vision 62/33 has the Cradle to Cradle Certified®Bronze label, crucial for new construction projects at high sustainability levels.

The Dockside project developer is Reales, with a consortium comprising Vink Bouw and SBB serving as the contractor and glass facades produced by Facedo. The prefabricated units were pre-glazed in Kawneer aluminium frames. The complex was designed by Leeuwenkamp Architecten, whose first-class architecture beautifully enriches the town centre. The exclusive two, three and four-bedroom apartments and penthouses feature plenty of living space as well as outdoor areas. Generous greenery all round, including on the rooftops, provides privacy for the occupants and the facilities include an underground garage as well as a bicycle parking station.
