An international role model<\/h3>

The water has given its name to the new city district \u2013 HammarbySj\u00f6 \u2013 the townaround the lake where planning work beganback in the 1980s. It was here that a unique opportunity to expand Stockholm\u2019s\u00a0inner city was envisaged, by converting an old industrial and harbour area into amodern city district. The focus throughout the planning work was on water and eco-friendly solutions. HammarbySj\u00f6stad now welcomes 13,000 visitors a year from all over the world.<\/p>\n

HammarbySj\u00f6stad is Stockholm\u2019s biggest urban development project for many years.The city district will offer a natural expansion of Stockholm\u2019s inner city \u2013 a factor that hasinfluenced the structure, infrastructure, layoutand construction design.<\/p>\n

The expansion required extensive development of the infrastructure, with traffic barriersremoved and the old industrial and terminalareas phased out, concentrated or given anew purpose. Stockholm and Nacka municipalities have agreed on the ways in whichthe areas on either side of the shared municipalboundary could interact and develop.<\/p>\n

HammarbySj\u00f6stad adds a new \u201cgrowth ring\u201d to Stockholm\u2019s urban growth \u2013 a modern,semi-open block-based city, a combinationof a closed, traditional inner city withmore modernistic and open planning types.The inner city street dimensions, block sizes, building heights, density and functionalitymix are integrated with a new openness,waterfront views, parks and sunlight.<\/p>\n

Limited building depths, recessed penthouse flats, maisonettes, large balconies andterraces, big windows, flat roofs and light colouredrendering on water-facing facadesembody different applications of a modernisticarchitecture programme, as does the focuson sustainable materials, such as glass,wood, steel and stone.
\nTraffic and services are concentratedalong a three-kilometre avenue linking HammarbySj\u00f6stad together, from M\u00e5rtensdal toDanvikstull.Parks, quays and walkways have been laid out around HammarbySj\u00f6 itself, whilethe water areas at the heart of the districtcomprise a concentrated visual park \u2013 thecity district\u2019s blue eye.<\/p>\n

Taller buildings, facing the water, have been built along both sides of the HammarbySeaway, in classic city centre style,and interact with large-scale quay facilitiesand expansive stretches of water.<\/p>\n

The milieu at SicklaUdde and alongsideSicklaKanal is more intimate and smallerscale, with its natural beaches. Here, buildingsizes gradually fade towards the shorelineand then follows the contours of the landas it rises towards the avenues\u2019 crown andSickla Park.
\nThe housing in SicklaKaj has a more urbanstyle. Large-scale, multi-functional buildingslie along the avenue, while small-scale,detached front and back courtyard buildingslie between the quays and the Sj\u00f6stad parterre,the park promenade.<\/p>\n

HammarbyG\u00e5rd has dense, urban milieus around a lens-shaped park area and a newlycreated pool.<\/p>\n

Lugnet, on the shores of HammarbySj\u00f6,is home to a waterfront terrace, known asLugnetsTerrass, with jetty decking, pergolasand specially planted areas, adjacent to theavenue. Lugnet is also home to HammarbySj\u00f6stad\u2019s most special feature building in theform of a latticed cube that is double theheight of those that surround it.<\/p>\n

The Henriksdalshamnen harbour is amongthe last of the planned areas in HammarbySj\u00f6stad. Large numbers of quays are beingbuilt out into the water to create, amongother things, a harbour basin with space forrestaurants and small boats.<\/p>\n

The plan is to route the heavily-traffickedV\u00e4rmd\u00f6leden highway along a tunnel throughHenriksdalsberget, to extend the Tv\u00e4rbananlight railway towards Slussen, and to extendthe avenue all the way up to a new servicecentre at Danvikstull.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n
