House information
Haapaniemenkatu 11
Situated close to the sea in Merihaka's distinctive urban landscape, this eight-storey residential building was completed in 1980. The apartments underwent extensive renovation in 2018, introducing modern finishes and refreshed interiors. The selection ranges from studios to spacious three-bedroom apartments, with layouts suited to individuals, couples and families.
The property has also benefited from several other improvements over the years. The façades were renovated in 2011, when the balconies were also glazed. The communal sauna facilities on the attic floor were refurbished in 2010. Residents additionally have access to a drying room, bicycle storage and a club room. The building also includes a cellar for household storage and individual storage units for each apartment.
Merihaka is a distinctive part of central Helsinki, characterised by its urban architecture, glimpses of the sea and nearby waterfront routes. Its location close to Hakaniemi Bridge and Sörnäisten rantatie brings both coastal scenery and the attractions of the city within easy reach. The waterfront provides opportunities for walking and enjoying the changing seasons.
Hakaniemi Market Hall, the shops around the market square, restaurants and other everyday amenities are all within walking distance. Public transport connections are extensive, with Hakaniemi metro station and nearby tram and bus services providing convenient access to central Helsinki and the wider metropolitan area. The new Crown Bridges tramway further enhances these connections. Tram line 12 runs through Merihaka and Hakaniemi towards Rautatientori in central Helsinki and, in the opposite direction, through Korkeasaari to Yliskylä in Laajasalo. At Nihti, passengers can change to tram line 11, which connects Kruunuvuorenranta, Korkeasaari and Kalasatama with Pasila, home to Pasila railway station and the Mall of Tripla.
