Grani (shopping centre)

[4] Of the three parts, two newer are owned by VVT Kiinteistösijoitus Oy.

[3][1][2][5] The shopping center was previously occupied by the office buildings of HOK-Elanto and Helsingin Osuuspankki, which were demolished in 1993 and 2006.

The biggest problem, however, he sees around the building, where too much space is reserved for cars and road areas without reaching a comfortable small scale.
