  • 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. HELSINKI OVERVIEW Cushman & Wakefield | Helsinki | 2019 1 HELSINKI KEY RETAIL STREETS & AREAS ESPLANADI AND MIKONKATUIn the very ALEKSANTERINKATU center of Helsinki, the Esplanadi area consists of two Aleksanterinkatu is one of the main retail streets in streets, Pohjoisesplanadi and Eteläesplanadi, northern Helsinki.
