Leidsche Rijn is a neighbourhood under construction west of Utrecht in the central Netherlands. The neighbourhood is expected to be completed in 2015 and will have approximately 80,000 inhabitants.

Currently there are plans for a controversial skyscraper called "Belle van Zuylen". This skyscraper would (if constructed) be 262 meter in height and will replace the Dom Tower as the highest structure in the city of Utrecht.

The centre of this new neighbourhood will be situated above the Rijksweg A2 and will possibly include a few high-rise structures. There are 12.307 people living in Leidsche Rijn as of January 1st 2005.
