I live in a famous part of Stockholm called Vällingby. This part of Stockholm was inaugurated the same year I was born as a conceptual city design. The ABC community. ABC is the Swedish acronym for Work, Residence and Centre. Architects and politicians from all over the world came here to watch and learn this new concept. Not much of the original concept is left to see today since many industries have left the scene and shopping have decreased significantly due to the greater markets that has popped up as satellites in the suburbs of Stockholm. Shopping nearby is limited to daily needs. The center committee is doing a vast job making this part of Stockholm alive again. Planting birches in pots, however, is not their idea, I think.
Trappan is an original building from the first years and is now renovated and will become a cultural centre of Vällingby AND Stockholm.
