The BG5 building along Vendelstraat was originally constructed between 1887 and 1890 as the New Clinical Hospital. It was designed in a modest Neo-Dutch Renaissance style using a pavilion system by the assistant city architect at the time, H. Leguyt, on behalf of the Hospital Board. The building is part of the Binnengasthuis complex, which once accommodated several clinics on its premises. The Binnengasthuis complex holds significant cultural and medical-historical value, as it was part of the expansion and modernisation of old hospitals towards the end of the 19th century. It is also the only large hospital that remains in the city center.
