Old news (last year), but I couldnt find any other suitable thread.

The municipality of Tjörn on the west coast of Sweden approved the new residental hub project on the island of Mossholmen last year, the 17th of May 2010. The project has been waiting approval for over 5 years, and is clearly one of the most interesting things going on in this part of Sweden.

What makes this project especially interesting is the plan of building a central high-rise tower in the middle of the residental hub, rising 14+ floors.


Detaljplan Mossholmens marina klar

Samhällsbyggnadsnämnden antog den 17 maj 2010 ny detaljplan för Mossholmens marina. Planen innebär möjlighet att bygga 160-180 lägenheter i byggnader som varierar i höjd mellan en till fyra våningar. Centralt i området kan ett högre hus om 14 våningar byggas. Allmänheten har genom planen säkrats fullt tillträde till området, som kommer att erbjuda många vackra promenadmiljöer längs kajer och pirar.

Området är uppdelat i sex kvarter (Bockholmen, Västra kajen, Piren, Norra kajen, Hamnen och Utsikten) med olika karaktärer men med en utformning som ska markera en gemensam helhet. Planen omfattar krav på att ett gestaltningsprogram ska arbetas fram för varje kvartersdel som underlag för bygglovsprövningen. Området byggs ut etappvis, med början i söder, på Bockholmen.

So far, construction has not yet started. Updates will be posted as the demolishing process of the old water tank begins.

Amazing that it got approved! I never would have thought that in an area like that just by the water. Would be really great if someone had any more information indeed? Perhaps more renders of what the highrise will look like? Thanks for posting! :)

I wish I had more renders, but they seem extremely rare...

There is, however, a detailed PDF-file with more in-depth information about the environmental issues regarding the project here ---> www.tjorn.se/download/18.../Miljökonsekvensbeskrivning.pdf

I'm afraid the pdf link doesn't work.
