This residential building was completed in 1952, in the same year when the 1952 Summer Olympics were held in Helsinki/Helsingfors. The residential building has five staircases and eight floors, so it is among the largest in Finland that were completed in the early 1950s. I managed to get into four out of five, as the last staircase (Staircase E) doesn't have access through the basement. Here is a list of all the elevators in this residential building, all filmed on the 27th of June, 2020, 06-07.10.2020):
• Last Ride: Beautiful O... (Staircase A)
• Last Ride: Beautiful O... (Staircase B)
• Last Ride: Beautiful O... (Staircase C)
• Last Ride: Beautiful O... (Staircase D)
• Beautiful Original Old... (Staircase E)
• Beautiful Original Old... (Staircase R)
The other biggest, and also the tallest from the early 1950s is at Hämeentie / Tavastvägen 68 in Sörnäinen / Sörnäs, staircases A, B and C, also completed in 1952, with 10 floors: • 10 Floors! Beautiful O... (Staircase A, Filmed on the 17th of June, 2020) • 10 Floors! Beautiful O...
