I agree on that there's way more municipalities (kommuner) in Norway for it's own good just as an example: Haugesund and Karmøy (parts of Karmøy is mainland) are divided at a place where there literally is no countryside or anything like it at the points., and the only bit of farmland there is a patch of grass wedged in between houses, roads and stores XD

![]() SSB has done some work to divide Norway into economical regions. Maybe we should use these as new kommuner instead. Personally I think somewhere between 100-200 is more appropriate, but I would prefer 90 to 430. Click here for the report. Quote:

700 new hotel rooms will open during this and next year. According to local paper Rogalands Avis the Stavanger region will thereby exceed Bergens hotel capacity.
Comfort Hotel Square, Rica Airport Hotel together with Scandic located at Forus are all under construction. http://www.rogalandsavis.no/naring/article5131335.ece Last edited by Nguen77; May 26th, 2010 at 03:59 PM. Reason: link update |

I guess the oil industry that IceCheese refers to is still attracting international/national visitors to Stavanger.
A funfact regarding hotels in Stavanger. Stavanger hotel Rica Park is rated best norwegian hotel with its 211. position. http://www.expedia.com/daily/promos/...ct/default.asp http://www.nrk.no/programmer/tv/fbi/1.7109003 Last edited by Nguen77; May 26th, 2010 at 08:35 PM. |

Construction of Bryggeriparken will start this fall. First step will consist of 22 000m2 of office space. When completed the whole project will house 220 000m2 of office space and merchandise. This includes a highrise.

Tar grep for nytt tinghus
Ordfører Leif Johan Sevland skal lede en gruppe som skal finne 10.000 kvadratmeter midt i sentrum til nytt tinghus. Mange interessante lokaler De to møtte i går Rogalands Avis foran det kanskje mest aktuelle alternativet på Ankertorget – så sentralt som det er mulig å komme. – Jeg vil ikke binde meg til enkelte alternativer ennå, men det finnes flere interessante muligheter, dette er en av dem. Det kan likevel bli Jernbanetomten til slutt, sier Sevland. Jernbanetomten har vært domstolsadministrasjonens førstevalg siden beslutningen om nytt tinghus ble tatt i 2004. Lange utredninger i forbindelse med dobbeltspor og andre har utsatt prosessen. Sevland vil ha en avklaring så kjapt som mulig. I august skal gruppen ha funnet fram til de mest aktuelle alternativene, slik at en videre utredning kan avklare hvor tinghuset bør være i framtiden. I gruppen som Sevland leder, sitter folk fra både domstolsadministrasjonen, kommunen, Statsbygg og Stavanger tingrett. – I løpet av våren 2011 bør vi ha kommet langt på vei. Vi har en unik situasjon her. Staten står klar med en halv milliard, en internasjonal arkitektkonkurranse skal utføres, og når Statsbygg er utbygger, er vi komfortable, sier Sevland. – Det blir et praktbygg, sier Bjørnestad, som gleder seg til å forlate bygningen i Bergelandsgata som har vært Stavangers tinghus siden 1952. Construction start September 2010 |

![]() That's great news. Do you know when they will start digging between Ålgård and Hove. Doesn't really sound like it will be for another couple of years

Well, one can read this as negative, but there is genuine interest to build these towers so we shouldn't give up yet - doesn't seem to be a general halt in interest for Forus, problem here is price per squaremeter. Føniks is such a beautiful design it would be very sad to see change in favour of a cheaper building. It becomes clear that approval isn't a guarante for realisation even in strict Norway. Both growing cities aswell, Kristiansand and Trondheim has also had towers approved for years now without construction start....
