An area at the south bank of the Maas river In Rotterdam, The Netherlands, is called 'Kop van Zuid' (Head of South). Recently new buildings there were constructed. They are very contrasting against the existing old buildings/houses there. For further details please check-out this link.

On the right hand side of this image one can partly see the Erasmus bridge.

"New" is always in progress, isn't it Mr C? For there was a period when the "Old" in this picture was being built after the then "old" was torn down to make room. We will (probably) not be here when this "new" experiences the same fate, but it is sure to happen.

Everything has its beauty. I love these new and modern structures. Excellent work, Cornelius.

I too really like the contrasts in this Mr. C. - I appreciate the sleekness of the new but love the charm of the old.

A very interesting dichotomy in architecture Cornelius - however, I prefer the traditional - Great Capture!!!

Change happens. My old home town looks nothing like it did when I was a child. There are hardly any landmark buildings left. This is a good image well done, Cornelius, and a thought-provoker.

A captivating view Mr.C!!! What a stark contrast especially with those "boxy" shaped buildings in the back:) Good one.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Surely you have chosen the perfect angle to view this scene, lighting is remarkable on this.
