Hannover Leasing buys "Central Post" office building in Rotterdam for institutional property fund

"Central Post" is one of the most famous office buildings in the heart of Rotterdam, located directly next to the main train station. Partly listed, the building from the 1950s has 38,500 sq.m. of GLA and was extensively refurbished and modernised in 2009.
