Renovation of the Noodzetel in Den Haag
The Municipality of Den Haag intends to repurpose the underground Noodzetel, a former Cold War bunker, into archive spaces for the Haags Gemeente Archief (level -1) and rehearsal spaces for the pop sector (level -2). The project requires a thorough structural and environmental inspection, renovation of the underground floors, installation of climate and ventilation systems, fire and safety facilities, and sound insulation for the rehearsal spaces. Additionally, the space must comply with accessibility standards, data security, and archive storage requirements. The tender is non-public, meaning a limited number of preferred supplier candidates. Execution requires a combination of building expertise, experience with historical/underground locations, and knowledge of archive infrastructure. The municipality expects an integrated approach in which the safety, sustainability, and cultural value of the location are preserved.
