Together with Hosper Sweden, Mandaworks and Tyréns we took part in a parallel assignment investigating new development and densifying opportunities in central Alvik.

Stockholm is growing, and the city needs to plan for new housing, parks, infrastructure and jobs for around 200,000 new residents until 2030. This means that many interests interact on a relatively limited area.

The City’s Planning Department started in 2013 a development program for Alvik, simultaneously with the Exploitation Office being commissioned for the broadening of an earlier investigation around the same area. The city is now investigating possibilities of creating an urban Alvik. Between 1500 and 3000 housing may be possible to create. The program area covers the district Alvik and parts of Tranebergsbron, Stora mossen, and Ulvsunda.
