Kalasatama

The transfer of the Sörnäinen Harbour to Vuosaari in 2008 will set in motion the biggest process of change in Helsinki in over a hundred years.

Unique. Modern. Urban. Rising up next to the sea in the heart of Helsinki, the Kalasatama commercial and residential area is all of these.

The transfer of the Sörnäinen Harbour to Vuosaari is setting into motion the biggest process of change in Helsinki in over a hundred years. Moving the harbour away from the city centre provides the opportunity to completely transform the shorelines along Sörnäinen and Hermanni, as old industrial buildings, warehouses and harbour operations make way for modern office buildings and residential areas.

The multifaceted urban infrastructure will offer unique opportunities for combining work, housing and services. Kalasatama will be a way of life!

Kalasatama, or “fish harbour”, is located by the sea in the heart of Helsinki close to the city centre. The travel time by metro from Kalasatama to the main shopping streets and university is just 5 minutes. The urban milieu and central location combined with the rapidly developing surrounding areas make Kalasatama especially attractive. The district has all the advantages of central Helsinki without the congestion of the city centre.
