AIHEITA PHOTOS
Aiheita Photos is a photoblog mostly about different places.
The blog is not updated anymore. New photosets are published at the Albums section of my travel photos site. Single images are added to Picture by picture photo pages.
Update 28-Mar-2011: The most probable name for the area will be Rööperinranta, meaning 'Rööperi waterfront'. 'Rööperi is a colloquial name for the neighbouring Punavuori district (in Swedish: Rödberg).
Telakkaranta is an unofficial name for an area between historic drydock of Hietalahti and Telakkakatu (Dock Street) in Helsinki. Although there is no dock activity in the area anymore it is still closed from public (there is, however, a working dock next to it).
There are plans to build new housing in the area and use the old brick buildings for commercial and culture activities. As part of Open House Helsinki in September 2010, the city planning division arranged a public walk in the area.
Below there are 20 photographs of Telakkaranta which I took at the walk.
