The Kalasatama study area is mostly situated in the inner transit fabric whereas the Kuninkaantammi study site is located in the outer autobile fabric. In 2030 the southern parts of Kuninkaantammi will be part of the outer transit fabric. Not much change will have happened in the Kalasatama study site. The urban fabrics in Kuninkaantammi will not change between 2030- 2050 whereas the southern parts of Kalasatama, especially Sompasaari, will become inner and outer transit fabric. The map includes the urban fabrics in 2016 and the areas suitable for recreation in 2018.

Only Euclidean commuting distances below 100 km are included in the calculation. People commute to Kalasatama from all over Helsinki, with an emphasis on southern and eastern Helsinki areas. Compared to Kuninkaantammi, more people live near their work places as the largest number of commutes are made form areas near Kalasatama. People commute to Kuninkaantammi especially from areas near metro and train lines in Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa. There aren’t many work places in Kuninkaantammi and therefore the number of overall commutes is very low, only 6 people at most. The Kalasatama residents often commute to areas in southern Helsinki. Some commutes are also done to nearby centers around metro and train lines. The Kuninkaantammi residents commute to centers easily accessible by train, for example, the Helsinki city center and southern Helsinki centers Pasila and Kalasatama. They also work in many Vantaa centers such as Myyrmäki, Aviapolis and the Helsinki-Vantaa airport. Summary ● Kalasatama is aiming for 25 000 inhabintants and 10 000 workplaces by 2040 and was at 5300 inhabintants and 2400 workplaces in 2019. ● Kuninkaantammi is aiming for 5000 inhabitants and 1000 workplaces by 2027 and was at 2100 inhabitants and 240 workplaces in 2019. ● Kalasatama residents are most often young and working age adults ages 18-29 ● Kuninkaantammi has more families (young children and adults 30-49) ● Both commuting distances for Kalasatama residents and people working in Kalasatama are shorter than those for Kuninkaantammi residents ● Kuninkaantammi has a larger variety of different types of flats and housing.

Helsinki has always been a wooden city 1.1. Early days of wooden city Helsinki has always been a city of wooden buildings. Since its founding in 1550 until the late 19th century, wood was the main material of buildings. The city structure was formed by one and two storey wooden city blocks, where working-class people lived. Only the state and church could afford construction in brick or stone. Big city fires have destroyed Helsinki totally or partially approximately once a century between 1550-1900. 1.2. Historical wooden house districts Helsinki expanded rapidly in the early 1900s. Several working-class wooden house dis- tricts were developed to ease the considerable housing shortage. Many of these neigh- bourhoods were demolished in the big wave of urbanization of 1960s and 1970s, but at the same time the remaining wooden house districts were protected. The formerly working-class neighbourhoods then transformed into middle-class neigh- bourhoods favoured by urban bohemians, complete with corner bars, cafés and small street-level shops.
