Dynamic Helsinki - New Urban Development Projects

Helsinki history’s largest change in construction is going on.

When the three cargo ports were transferred in 2008 from the city centre to Vuosaari, some 250 hectares of waterfront areas were vacated. In all Helsinki plans to build 4,5 million floor sqm for housing and almost 2,5 million floor sqm for business purposes.

This means homes for even 100 000 people and jobs for tens of thousands. The construction work will be done in the second and third decades of the 2000’s.
