Last Sunday I participated in a tour of the former Van Nelle Factory in Rotterdam. It's an impressive factory complex where they blended and packed mainly tobacco, coffee and tea. It's a national monument and Unesco World Heritage site and is now used by small start-up companies and events.
If you're in the area I can highly recommend a visit. More details in the Wiki article linked above.
Here's some images I took there:
Facade
Bridges connecting to the warehouse building (only used for goods, not for people)
Bridges from ground level
Windows and bridges
Bridges galore
The back side
A7ii + Industar 61 (53/2.8, M39) and A7Rii + E10-18/4 (APS-c)
I'll be back later with some interior shots.

Some inside views of the Van Nelle factory
Ground floor of the Tobacco factory, using this type of "mushroom" columns supporting the floors and non-supporting glass facades on the outside was a revolutionary design in the late 1920's
Looking up the double staircase, with actually one set of stairs for females and the other one for males so the different genders wouldn't mingle on their way up/down.
Switchboard
Original washroom (only the red doors were added later)
Gispen benches (with back heating) in the waiting lounge
Heat exchangers for the heating of the buildings
Same cameras/lenses as the previous post

Schottenburch, the oldest existing warehouse in Amsterdam, located on the Kromboomssloot.
A850 + Min 24/2.8 RS
From wikipedia: Schottenburch is said to be the oldest existing warehouse in Amsterdam. It is certainly one of the oldest warehouses in the city. Schottenburch has a gable stone with the date 1636, but the building can already be seen on the city map of Amsterdam from 1595 made by Pieter Bast. It is a double warehouse with spout facades and shutters at Kromboomssloot 18-20. Pakhuis de Schottenburch was an artists' initiative from 1979 to 1988. Exhibitions, performances, theater, art events (including "Closer to the Images" and "Art or Pornography?") and music performances were organized by visual artist Wim Vonk, who organized the Schottenburch artists' initiative.
Schottenburch now houses residences, a gallery and a wine trader.
