All new Norwegian highrises

[Þróndeimr]

I have mentioned this before, but again, this is the proposed 51,2m/15floor tall highrise at Espenes, Hamar. First proposed in 2004, then up to the council in 2007 and met strong opposition obviously. The last decision i know of was to wait with the highrise untill better analysis of highrises in Hamar was done, which was done earlier this year. So maybe this one still live, or its dead. Architects is LARKAS AS from Lillehammer.

So what was the outcome of these analysis?

So there are 3 proposals from Hamar then? This one + the stadium highrise + the one at the northern town-square?

I'm guessing this is the same place...

Ålesunds townhall seems to be getting it's reclad eventually:

[Tohaki]

It looks like this will be a much needed improvement. Ålesund is perhaps the most beautiful city we have in Noway, but the town hall has been sticking out like a sore thumb.

[Þróndeimr]

its very much needed indeed, but i would not mind it looking even better than what it appears on the render (which is kinda bad too, so i can't say much).

[IceCheese]

The render from bygg.no is a bit better, if you haven't seen it:



Construction time is supposedly three years! I guess it will be in stages, and that the building will be fully used all through the process. Architect is hrtb.

[Þróndeimr]

hm, very long time, since the façade on the highrise isn't much of a change. Typical though, they seem to do much more with the low-rise section...

The Bryne-effect is still on in Rogaland, a politician in Randaberg dreams of getting a 20 floor building in this small towns centre:

Proposed
Kvartal 42
Kristiansand - Vest Agder

A mixed use project with commercials, some office, 60-80 apartments, cultural centre and a conference hall with up to 2000 seats. It will be built
in one of the quarters on the eastern side of Kristiansand's historical city centre. The project will be one large building mass, 5-6 floor tall facing
the street, with a 12 floor tall tower on the south-east corner. There will also be a roof park for the residents of the building. Project is designed by
Kristin Jarmund Architects.

What a great project for Kristiansand. And that's a really good looking highrise.

That's good news for Mo i Rana, but did you read the comments the two people in the article made?

Levende sentrum
At mange vil ha ei mening om hvordan området skal utvikles, synes både Rimer og Tverå er helt naturlig.

– Vi er opptatte av at sentrum ikke må utvides. Skal vi lykkes med å bygge opp et levende sentrum med yrende liv, må det legges til rette for dette, påpeker Tverå.

– At det nå bygges opp flere nye storsenter utafor sentrum er imidlertid ingen ulempe. Dette viser bare at næringslivsaktører, både lokale og utenbys, er villige til å satse i Rana og det er selvsagt positivt, sier han

So they think developing the centre is something that should be done, and the way to do this is by not developing the centre, and instead building new shopping malls outside of it. Right.

[Ingenioren]

Yeah, not a very clever formulation I think he is trying to say that commerce should be located withinn the historical sentrum area instead of moving along E6 or E12.

[Þróndeimr]

This is the proposals for Vervet in Tromsø, the largest development project for years in the city. From the idea entries it looks very interesting, its a project which will be interesting to follow the next few years!
