The construction of the FIRST Rotterdam skyscraper was the first stage in the reconstruction of the Weenapoint office complex. However, not only offices, but also apartments are located here. The project cost is estimated at 80 million euros.

In order not to violate the visual integrity of the area, the facade is made in the style of buildings located on the opposite side of the street. The building has 33 floors, including two underground, designed for a large car park. The base of the skyscraper is a parallelepiped with a height of 35 meters, on which two towers with an exploited green roof rest.

There are about 200 solar panels on the roof. They serve as a source of renewable energy. For air conditioning the premises, as well as for providing the building with hot water, systems with geothermal heat pumps are used here, which use natural sources of cold and heat from underground layers. The use of these and other technologies allowed the skyscraper to receive a BREEAM certificate upon completion of construction.
