A place for a different kind of good news
Tidningskvarteren (or the Press quarter) are located in Kungsholmen around and between two of Stockholm’s most famous buildings: the Sweco building (formerly the SvD building) and DN-skrapan (DN skyscraper). Although most Stockholmers are familiar with the location of the properties, few have been to the area – especially after the newspapers closed their printing presses and relocated in the late 1990s. As a result, the place has lost its vibrancy and its fast-paced atmosphere.
Our ambition for Tidningskvarteren is to bring the properties and surrounding area back to life. By developing the properties and the area we want to create an exciting new destination in Stockholm. There will be open and inclusive spaces offering services, entertainment, and experiences. For example, we plan to establish plantations, a dog daycare centre, art and exhibition spaces, open spaces with free Wi-Fi, event stages and an eco-friendly car wash.
The project is guided by our vision: “Investing in new shapes of progress. For society and beyond.” We want Tidningskvarteren to take a leading position in property development and circularity.
Our approach is circular in every sense: we innovatively use existing resources and have named the area Tidningskvarteren to honour its history and make these classic newspaper properties a place for a different kind of good news.
