Norra Djurgårdsstaden

The area is located in the borough of Östermalm and is undergoing brownfield redevelopment.

An important part of the development concerns a concentration of port operations to the two piers in Värtahamnen and at Frihamnen.

The direct access to the Baltic Sea was one of the reasons for building the port of Värtahamnen in 1884.

To begin with, this harbour was mainly used to transport coal, which was used as a fuel at the local gasworks.

At the start of the 21st century, it was decided that this area should be modernised and the previous industries should be demolished.
