Moss Development Thread

[GuyFromMoss]

All the threads about Norway seems to be just about large cities like Oslo, Bergen and Trondheim. So I decided to make a thread about my little city, Moss. First some information. Oslo is about 45 minutes driving from Oslo, and is on the right side of the Oslo Fjord. The city has about 28 000 inhabitans, but the total urban area is close to 40 000 people.

First some pictures of Moss:

Møllebyen area. It consists of cinema, cafees, libeary, museum, shops and even it's own brewery. Maybe my favorite area of Moss

Sjøbadet Beach. Probably not the best beach in the world, but it's convient since it's located in the very heart of the city

There are a lot of exciting projects in Moss. I will post some of them on this thread.

Amfi Moss is a shopping centre located on the main pedestrian street in Moss, it has about 50 stores, and is the second largest Shopping Centre in Moss. They are now reconstructing it in order to get 110-120 stores.

The project also include 20 appartments, about 700 parking spaces and major street renovation. A large bus terminal will also be built. Everything will be ready by October. :)

On jeløy, an peninsula by Moss, they are building 500 new appartments in a former glass bottle factory.

Some of the apparments are already finished, but most of them are yet to be constructed. When everything is finished, the area will include daycare and a supermarket.

Its not huge projects, but good to be Moss! The shopping centre is going to be nice though. Moss has quite many shipping centres already!

[GuyFromMoss]

I know those projects are not huge. But I will soon post a big post about Moss airport that will open next year.

And there are other projects too, including a new shopping centre ;)
