Tour description:
Nordhavn is Copenhagen’s future sustainable city with a maritime and industrial history of hardworking laborers building the harbor and seamen traveling with the East Asiatic Company, which once dominated this part of town. Many old warehouses, such as 'Pakhus 54,' have been transformed into atmospheric workshops and office spaces, and you’ll also find fashionable and expensive apartments in Nordhavn

We are going to see the exterior of eg. Portland Towers, The Silo, the FN headquarter, Kronløbsøen, ‘Frihavnstårnet’, Spidsen, and Lüders parkinghouse. At Lüders Parchouse you will find some surprises - as this is not a normal parkinghouse!

The guides will elaborate on the urban landscapes and how the citylife is developing in this part of Copenhagen were people live their lifes at the waterfront at the many promenades and harbourbaths. Many Architect groups also live in Nordhavn such as Bjarke Ingels Group and COBE.

One of my new favorite buildings in the area is the recently completed Spidsen by COBE Architects, where you can enjoy the winter garden, the nice elevated plateaus around the building with the best views of the harbor, and—oh yeah—there’s even a coffee shop.

For coffee though - Andersen and Maillard is located between Göteborg Plads and Hambor Plads! I mean the sizes of the cinnomanrolls there - you are in for a treat!

See you there!
Best regards
