  • Vironniemen Peruspiiri
    101 Vironniemen peruspiiri I ESTNÄS finns Helsingfors och Finlands administrativa centrum. År 1640 flyttades Helsingfors från Vanda åminne ut på Estnäs. I Kronohagen ligger stadens kejserliga empirecentrum: Senatstorget med bl. a. Storkyrkan, Universitetet och Statsrådsborgen. Gloet är hjärtat i Helsingfors centrum. Skatuddshamnen har livlig passagerartrafik, och de gamla magasinen har omändrats för modernare bruk. I Skatuddens östra ända byggdes i början av 1980-talet ett nytt bostadsområde. Vid Tölöviken håller stadsbilden på att förändras starkt: området håller på att bli en kulturknutpunkt med bl.a. Museet för nutidskonst Kiasma, Musikhuset och ett medborgartorg. Vironniemellä on Helsingin ja koko Suomen hallinnollinen ja taloudellinen keskus. Nykyisen Helsingin kasvu alkoi, kun Vantaanjoen suulle perustettu vanha kaupunki siirrettiin vuonna 1640 Vironniemelle. 1800-luvun puoliväliin asti Helsingin rakennettu alue rajoittui lähes kokonaan Vironniemeen ja siitä jonkin verran etelään. Historia näkyy myös alueen nykyisissä rakennuksissa, joista neljäsosa on valmistunut 1700-1800-luvuilla. The district of VIRONNIEMI is the administrative and financial centre Kruununhaassa on Helsingin vanha empirekeskusta, of Helsinki and Finland. In 1640, Senaatintori ja sen ympärillä tuomiokirkko, yliopisto, Helsinki was moved from its old valtioneuvoston linna sekä lukuisat muut valtakunnan location in Vanhakaupunki to the arvokkaimmat julkiset rakennukset. isthmus of Vironniemi.

  • HELSINKI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    HELSINKI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Helsinki | 2019 0 Helsinki is the capital of Finland and the largest and most important city in terms of commerce and trading. Helsinki is surrounded by Espoo, Vantaa and multiple other smaller cities, together they are usually referred to as the Helsinki Metropolitan Area (HMA). The population of HMA is about 1.5 million. Helsinki itself sets the tone to the Finnish economy and to all other Finnish markets. With broad avenues, grand architecture, well-tended parks and no high-rise buildings, Helsinki is a beautifully planned 19th Century city, but one that retains a small town feel. It is arguably closer in atmosphere and appearance to the major cities of Eastern Europe than those in the West, but it has the typically safe and clean reputation of a Scandinavian city. The main shopping areas in Helsinki CBD are located in high streets such as Pohjoisesplanadi, Mannerheimintie, Keskuskatu, Aleksanterinkatu, and Mikonkatu. There are also several large shopping centers located very centrally. Rental levels in these retail areas are the highest in Finland. Due to the weather conditions, shopping centers are very popular in Finland.

    Master's Thesis Regional Studies Urban Geography NEW-BUILD GENTRIFICATION IN HELSINKI Anna Kajosaari 2015 Supervisor: Michael Gentile UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI FACULTY OF SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF GEOSCIENCES AND GEOGRAPHY GEOGRAPHY PL 64 (Gustaf Hällströmin katu 2) 00014 Helsingin yliopisto Faculty Department Faculty of Science Department of Geosciences and Geography Author Anna Kajosaari Title New-build gentrification in Helsinki Subject Regional Studies Level Month and year Number of pages (including appendices) Master's thesis December 2015 126 pages Abstract This master's thesis discusses the applicability of the concept of new-build gentrification in the context of Helsinki. The aim is to offer new ways to structure the framework of socio-economic change in Helsinki through this theoretical perspective and to explore the suitability of the concept of new-build gentrification in a context where the construction of new housing is under strict municipal regulations. The conceptual understanding of gentrification has expanded since the term's coinage, and has been enlarged to encompass a variety of new actors, causalities and both physical and social outcomes. New-build gentrification on its behalf is one of the manifestations of the current, third-wave gentrification. Over the upcoming years Helsinki is expected to face growth varying from moderate to rapid increase of the population. The last decade has been characterized by the planning of extensive residential areas in the immediate vicinity of the Helsinki CBD and the seaside due to the relocation of inner city cargo shipping. Accompanied with characteristics of local housing policy and existing housing stock, these developments form the framework where the prerequisites for the existence of new-build gentrification are discussed.
