Pasila

[2] Central Pasila is currently home to the major sports and music venue Helsinki Halli and the Tripla complex, which includes a hotel of about 430 rooms, 50,000 square metres of office space[3] (including the headquarters of telecom operator Telia Finland[4]), about 400 residential flats[5] and the largest commercial center in the Nordic countries with 250 shops.

In connection with Tripla, several Trigoni skyscrapers are planned, the tallest of which, about 180 meters high from the top of the building, will be visible, in good weather, all the way to the Estonian coast.

Eastern Pasila (Finnish: Itä-Pasila) is a highly mixed-use area of offices, flats and commercial spaces, built in the 1970s and 1980s.

In terms of urban planning the most distinct feature of the area is its pedestrian-friendly design, based around a raised, pedestrian-only podium that connects to all buildings.

[17] Northern Pasila (Finnish: Pohjois-Pasila) is mainly known for Ilmala rail yard and a 2010s residential area called Postipuisto.

The former classification yard dividing the whole district is clearly visible in a 2010 aerial photograph. The 1990s station building by the bridge was later demolished and replaced by today's Tripla complex .
Pasila locomotive garages , protected by the Heritage Agency, have been repurposed into storages, restaurants and recreational use.
Eastern Pasila , known for its brutalist architecture, was built in the 1970s and 1980s.
Ilmala rail yard is serving both long distance and commuter trains.
