Redevelopment of Norrmalm

Redevelopment of Norrmalm

The Redevelopment of Norrmalm ("Norrmalmsregleringen") was a major revision of the city plan for lower Norrmalm in Stockholm, Sweden, which was realised during the 1950s, 60s and 70s. The renewal resulted in the old Klara quarters being replaced for the modern city of Stockholm, while the Stockholm subway was facilitated through the city.

The renewal of Norrmalm was the largest Swedish urban development project to date and engaged a large part of Sweden's architectural élite. The Norrmalm renewal has been criticized and admired throughout Sweden and internationally, and is regarded as one of the larger and most full of character of all city renewals in Europe during post-war time, even including the cities that took severe damage during the second world war. [Rudberg 1989, p. 146.]
