All that remain of the complex once occupied by the Blaauwhoedenveem company are the post-war office building and the much earlier warehouse Jobsveem. The office building cum warehouse from 1947 was renovated and converted into accommodation on the side to the water and office space on the city side. The office component in particular with its imposing entry and elegant stairwell is redolent of the atmosphere of former port activity. The curve in the street elevation is dictated by the changing course of a railway track.
