A much more adorable "lock" for the city

This maybe sounds absurd, but now I feel responsible for communicating final updates on Slussen's re-organization and reconstruction project after keeping an eye on and relating the news around it over such a long time here and in my FB profile! The approved plan is on exhibition for public at Peter Myndes Backe 3 (http://www.stockholm.se/slussen). Followed comes a summary of various elements of the new plan to replace existing perplexed structure present there since 1930's:

• a new park east of Katarinahissen with a panoramic view to Saltsjön and Skeppsholmen
• Slusstorget: a piazza in the middle plus two rectangular pools, cafés, places for sunbathing and sunshading, ...
• a comulative terminal for busses, metro and local trains for ease of change among transportation modes for commuters
• Södermalmstorg: a place for meeting and experiment
• buildings with transparent façades for utmost visual communication of inner and outer rooms and continuity of space
• two low office buildings in front of existing ones (Glashusen and KF-huset)
• project start: 2013, estimated inauguration time: 2020

Other ongoing or approved large-scale urban projects in Stockholm are as followed:

• Citybannan: a 6-km underground tunnel with stations at Odenplan and T Centeralen
• Stockholm by-pass: a 21-km motorway (18 km under the ground) linking north and south of the city with a 15-minute travel time
• Norra Djurgårdsstaden: a new energy-efficient world-class district with 10000 residential and 30000 office units
• Hagastaden: a new district to be located between Stockholm and Solna including a new university hospital, Nya Karolinska Solna
