Now here we are in Helsinki and just like Oslo, Copenhagen and Stockholm no one would think of this place as anything but a thriving commercial center
This
Is right next to a 15 story all glass hotel. There seems to be some protection for.monuments but everything is modern
Riga got around that by legislating the height of new buildings to be no taller than existing neighbors
I’m sorry I didn’t get you a picture of the buildings with a 8 story neighbor on one side and a 5 story neighbor on the other. They are stair-stepped
Tallin now has six skyscrapers which look plain silly
I can’t help thinking that Helsinki is such a moderm place just because people could get on with their lives starting businesses and basically prospering while the Baltics languished for 50 years under the Soviets
