  • Kävelyllä Tapanilassa Kävelyllä Tapanilassa
    Tapanilan Tuuli 46 / 2021 Kävelyllä Tapanilassa Kävelyllä Tapanilassa Tapanila on puutarhanomainen kaupunginosa pääradan varressa. Täällä ovat hienot peruskorjatut talot 1900-luvun alusta lähtien sovussa eri vuosikymmenten kerros-, rivi- ja paritalojen kanssa. On niin omistus-, osaomistus-, asumisoikeus- kuin vuokra-asuntojakin. Kylässä asuu vajaat kymmenentuhatta ihmistä. Koulut ja päiväkodit ovat lähellä. Kirjasto, Kylätila-talo ja puistot ovat kaikkien olohuoneita. Juna vie Helsingin keskustaan 15 ja lentokentälle 12 minuutissa tihein välein. Tapanila ei olisi säilynyt viihtyisänä puutarhakaupunginosana, elleivät kyläläiset olisi nousseet kapinaan kerrostalokaavaa ja leveitä tiesuunnitelmia vastaan Helsingin rakentamisen hulluina vuosina 1960- ja 1970-luvuilla. Tapanila-Seura ry julkaisee vuosittain Tapanila Tuuli -jäsenlehden, jonka teema on tänä vuonna Kävelyllä Tapanilassa. Lehdessä on esitelty 55 kävelykohdetta, joiden kirjoittamiseen on osallistunut 18 henkilöä ja useita kuvaajia. Myös koululaiset ovat olleet mukana tekemässä lehteä. Kävelyllä Tapanilassa -opas johdattaa kulkijat neliapilan lehtien tavoin neljälle eri kierrokselle, kaikkien lähtö- ja paluupisteenä on tori. Kierrosten pysähdyskohteiksi on valittu tärkeitä rakennuksia, tapahtumapaikkoja ja kiintopisteitä, joista on kerrottu faktaa, historiaa ja nykyaikaa kepeällä otteella. Pidempiä kävelyitä kaipaaville on lisäksi kolme lähialueilla sijaitsevaa, kyläläisille tärkeätä kohdetta. Nyt on eletty jo vuosi koronan aiheuttamien rajoitusten mukaan. Kylän tiet on ehkä kävelty
