Part of the reconstruction of the riverside walk by Kees Christiaanse. Halfway along the new promenade is a playful, breezily detailed restaurant pavilion. It is an integral part of the new layout, its design relating it to harbour activities. The glass pavilion with its broad prospect of the Maas has a distinctive undulating roof.
