CROSSING HORIZONS

The new park is seen as a process where residents and multiple animal and plant species live side by side, while preserving fractures of rich cultural history. Different biotopes are created on versatile green areas to support the surrounding ecological networks. The existing forests are preserved as much as possible. The park activities and structures are focused on the historical skeleton of the existing four runways.

The park consists of four different kinds of parts: ‘the Area of Pastures’ next to Fallkulla estate, ‘the Archeologic Crossing Point’ where the runways cross in the central part of the Lentoasemanpuisto, the ‘Area of Open Urban Fields’ with the storm water stream ´Pekki´ in front of the airport buildings and ‘the Forest Corridor’ which connects the park to eastern green structure of Helsinki.
