Sjöhusen

Two of the new apartment buildings at Klockelund. They are called sjöhusen, which means the lake houses. And that is a good name as they are just meters from Lake Drevviken. There are 48 apartments here, in three buildings, designed by Dinell Johansson. And there are several more new building nearby so this will be aq very busy area in the future. Oh, and if you look closely you can see the light from my eBike.

Brandbergen

Cycling home a few days ago I decided to stop at Brandbergen in Haninge. This is a newish apartment building just a short walk down the street from the rebuilt shopping mall.

Kvarteret sjögläntan

Building site in Handen. Close to the Rudan nature reserve. Some of the apartment buildings here are already finished and a lot of people have already moved in. But there are still three or four buildings under construction. The two builders here are Mjöbäcks and Järngrinden.

Brutalism

This is Tornet. The Tower. It is an 18-story-high rise, currently under construction at the Brandbergen mall in Haninge. Last time I was here, there were no balconies, so I guess that counts as progress! In total, there will be six new buildings here with around 400 apartments. The architect firm is Urban Couture.

Erlanderhuset

This is a fun building, at least for me as a photographer. It is known by a few different names. Dragspelet is one of them. That means Accordion. It was built back in 1962. The architect was Henning Orlando. It has just over 200 apartments. It is located up on a hill at Marieberg on Kungsholmen. One of the first people to move in was the then Prime Minister Tage Erlander so that is why the building became known as The Erlander building, or Erlanderhuset in Swedish. He lived in a five-room apartment on the seventh floor. It was shaped like this to give as many people as possible a good view from their apartments and balconies

Fyren

After my visit to the Käringboda nature reserve I turned the bike around and cycled back to Nynäshamn to check out one of the new apartment buildings there. It is called Fyren. You have seen it before and are very likely to see it again as it is not finished yet. But if you look closely just as I did when I shot the top photo, which is a panorama made from umpteen photos of the Lighthouse, you can see that people have already moved in to a few of the 466 apartments. I had a look at the real estate agents web site and it looks like there are maybe two apartments left for sale. And that was on the first floor, where a three-room apartment will cost you 5 000 000 SEK. Oh, and if you have good eyes you should be able to spot my bike.

Cutting Edge Living

Newish sixteen story building with 105 apartments at Regnbågsgatan near Forelltorget, at what is today known as Norra Tyresö Centrum. Built by Botrygg, together with Semrén & Månsson. The cutting edge part comes from the builders web site.

Smokefree Living

One of several new smoke-free buildings at Bollmora Allé in Tyresö. Built by Wallenstam. Located just a few hundred meters from the Tyresö mall. The message on the second photo welcomes you to Tyresö.

Flexible Living

Two photos from Rimfrostgränd at what is today known as Norra Tyresö Centrum. The apartments at Brf Steget are described as flexible. That means that you can move a wall to make your one-room apartment into a two-room apartment. Or if you live in a three-room apartment you can change that to a four-room apartment! Oh, and there is a hotel on the roof for butterflies!

Tyresö-View

This is a newish highrise called Tyresö-View. Up until last week, I had never photographed it, but after three visits to the neighboring municipality in the last week, I now have a few different photos to show you. The building is 82 meters high. It is a 23-story building with 125 apartments that sits next to the Tyresö mall. The first photo was a bit tricky. It is a panorama made from fifteen photos, taken with my Canon 6D using a Sigma 50mm lens. The second and third photos are also panoramas but not from as many photos. The last one took only four shots. I often use this technique because I can't stand the distortion I get from the wide-angle lenses.

The Clearing

New apartment complex currently under construction at Parkstråket in Handen. It is called Sjögläntan. That can be translated to The Clearing. This is a panorama made from 12 photos. I used the 70-300mm lens on the Canon 77D. The rainbow appeared just as I started to shoot. It started to snow a couple of hours ater I snappe this.

Scaffolding

Haven't been out much with the camera this last week, but here is a photo of Brf Blicken, the new high-rise building currently under construction at the huge Haningeterrassen project in central Handen. Shot with the new Canon zoom lens using one of my Viltrox teleconverter extenders.

Apartment Building

This is a new living area currently under construction at Lillgården in Tungelsta. More photos in my flickr set.

Brf Blicken

The 18 storey high apartment building Brf Blicken at Handenterrassen in Handen is starting to take shape. The first modules have arrived so I think the pace of the construction will go up a bit now.

Optimera

One of three apartment buildings currently under construction at Tuvvägen in Handen. Optimera is the name of a store used by professionals in the construction industry.

Golden Glow

This apartment building is part of a complex called Haninge Park. Situated at the Folkets Park in Handen. I remember taking a bunch of photos here years ago as they were building it. And I have also taken a few portraits of the people that lives here. This was the scene earlier this week. The low standing Winter sun glowing in the windows.

Building Site

Tuvvägen in Handen is a busy building site at the moment. You can see three apartment buildings currently under construction in this photo and also one that was finished earlier in the year. I'm sure it will look less messy when they are done here.

Don't fall down now okay?

Swedish word of the day. Stabil. Steady. That's what it says on the construction workers overalls. But this doesn't look too steady to me. A new apartmend building is taking shape at Tuvvägen in Handen. Called Södertuvan.

Argos

Not too long now before the new occupants can move in to old City Hall in Handen. It will cost you a pretty penny to live on the top two floors and the view from up there is said to be a good one. You can see both Stockholm and the archipelago. The new apartment building is called Argos and sits in the middle of the Haninge mall so if you need to go shopping just use the elevator and you are there.

The hole in the ground

You might recognise the apartment building in the background as I have shown you a few photos of it during the last year. Looks like they are almost done with the exterior now. I think this will be some kind of care facility and I have seen furniture and a Christmas tree inside so someone is already working in there. A few months ago workers started digging a big hole here and that was the start of the next apartment building to be built here.
