Sky over Åby

Sky over Åby

The Fields of Åby. That's the name of this new housing area. Five new apartment buildings in Västerhaninge, next to Åby Lund. As I took these photos I talked to a man who lives here. He had sold his house and was very happy with his new home. The trees you see in the background is the Hanveden forest, so you really are one with nature here. All apartments come with a balcony or a veranda. And your own parking space. The apartments are part of a housing cooperative known here as a bostadsrättslägenhet. Most of the apartments are 75 m² and have three rooms and a kitchen.

Sky Watch Friday.

Those apartments sound like there are about the size of my house. Great shot. Would be kinda nice to live so close to a forest. Hope you have a wonderful day.

Interesting to see what apartment buildings look like in Sweden. ;-)

It does look a little bit more isolated than a lot of apartments.

There is another housing area only meters away from this new one. It was built back in the 1980ths. And that area, Åby Lund is connected with a few areas from the 1970ths and 1960ths, and if you walk all the way from here to the city centre, you get a good view over how the architecture has changed over the last 50 years. And boy has it changed! I lived not far from here some twenty five years ago and I used to jog in this forest.
