FJORDCITY | Sørenga

muster · December 5th, 2007, 12:25 AM

Sørenga
Official website about Sørenga here.

Sørenga is an old harbor pier stretching out in the fjord in Bjørvika. Its a major residential and mixed use projects in Bjørvika, a part of the Fjordcity
project. Between 2009 and 2016 approximately 800 dwellings will be built here offering a fantastic location right on the waterfront. The area is
unique in that it is surrounded by the fjord on three sides. Among the facilities planned are a park and bathing complex, a long harbour
promenade with shops, cafés and restaurants and a marina. As well as underground parking facilities, there will also be storage units where
residents can stow their kayaks.

A total of eight building phases are planned for completion by 2016. The first building phase consists of three separate buildings of between five
and seven floors. Building Phase 1 will be ready for occupancy in the autumn of 2011. The second building phase, where most of the top-floor
apartments have private terraces, consists of four buildings with 93 apartments and a secluded courtyard above the harbour promenade. The
third building phase is designed around an atrium. This contains 127 apartments, 19 of which are so-called rooftop apartments with terraces
measuring up to 150 sq m. The façade evokes associations with a ship’s hull, and the sea-facing balconies protrude like the bridge of a ship
above the harbour promenade and the marina. Next building phase, phase 4, will be put on the market in the autumn of 2011.

Sørenga is divided into several sites, scroll down, or click these links to jump to your site of interest.

Do we need another thread for this? Does the Fjordcity-thread see that much activity?

On the news side, though, I saw a picture earlier this week (or was it last week?) that showed which quarter they will start selling first. In the original Fjordcity-thread, I speculated on them starting to sell from the "inside" and outwards, but it seems as they will start pretty randomly in the middle. This is basicly where the will start selling:

Ingenioren · October 5th, 2009, 09:15 AM

^ Always nice to gather the information in different treads if one wants to retrieve a specific piece later on

I am most looking forward to see the design of Canal-houses, hopefully it will be in a modern Amsterdam-style!

joamox · October 5th, 2009, 11:14 AM

canal houses, are those that we seen in the render facing west?
This is going to be an interesting thread to follow

IceCheese · October 5th, 2009, 03:31 PM

Actually, the canal-houses will be the ones facing the canals (there will be two of them). Like seen in this aerial:

And some general info about Sørenga (to be posted in the first post?):
Construction start: 2010
First block finished: 2011-12
All eight blocks finished: 2016
Number of appartments: 950
Total size: 80 000 sqm (includes ~8 000 sqm non-housing area)

UrbanLife · October 5th, 2009, 06:55 PM

I have actually never noticed the second canal! It sure looks good. Searched for some Sørenga facts yesterday, and this proposal from Snøhetta looks crappy:

(The right one)

Glad LPO won. The Snøhetta has no urban feel at all..

mjoks007 · October 5th, 2009, 07:23 PM

Cant wait to see the renders, I really hope it will be something simular to Sluseholmen.
And yes, the Snøhetta plan looks awfull. It would destroy the Bjørvika concept totally.

All these projects are the same. Oslo need something new.

Maybe something like this:
