"Highest residential tower block
On this incredibly small plot - just 30 by 35 metres - a 130 metre-high residential tower block, the highest in The Hague, Het Strijkijzer stands.
Het Strijkijzer has 351 housing units:  three hundred studios for young people and 51 luxury rental apartments. The building has a number of sun lounges, two separate entrances and a total of five lifts. And there is more: a trendy Grand Café, a launderette and workspaces. And a special glass panorama lift that goes straight to the terrace on the 41st floor."
