Office space at Drift 17 in Utrecht
Drift 17 is a stately office building in the historic centre of Utrecht, offered as a whole to a single tenant. The national monument dates from the 16th century; in the 17th century a right wing and a coach house on the Keizerstraat were added, and in 1898 the Utrecht silversmith Jan Hendrik Brom set up his workshop here, had the front remodelled and designed the Art Nouveau entrance hall together with his pupil Gerrit Rietveld. Today the building combines that history with modern comforts: split air conditioning in almost all rooms, a passenger lift, toilets on every floor, a large kitchen with a bar on the ground floor and a tag access system. Parking spaces on the enclosed grounds at the rear come with the lease.
