Completed in the mid-2010s as part of the Niittykumpu metro station area’s urban renewal, this residential tower is one of the tallest buildings in Espoo, standing at approximately 90 meters with 24 stories. It symbolizes the shift in Espoo’s suburban identity — from low-rise, car-centered neighborhoods to vertical living and public transit integration.
Located just meters from Niittykumpu Metro Station, the building is known not only for its height, but also for its contemporary Nordic design — characterized by clean lines, dark cladding, and large glass balconies. At night, the warm glow from individual apartments creates a grid of lives quietly illuminated in the sky.
This photo, taken with the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II, captures that quiet moment when the city turns blue, and the tower watches over the neighborhood like a glowing monolith of urban life.
