Adelswärdska huset

Adelswärdska huset
Funny story here. This is Adelswärdska huset at Strömgatan. From 1890. Designed by Isak Gustaf Clason. It sits next to the Prime Minister's residence, Sagerska palatset. It was sold to the Swedish Government just a few years ago. The then owner Ratos thought that it was yay big. But then the people from Areakorrekt measured it and told them that it was way bigger. So when they sold it to the state, they got much more money, around 550 MillionSEK than they had previously expected from the sale.

So for the sale of this grand building, no one bothers to have the exact dimensions measured?

That is a nice place for government workers to relax.
