Awards
Winner of the Swedish Landscape Architecture Award. The area received the 2019 Swedish Landscape Architecture Award, partly in thanks to the project creating space for vegetation which provides both a sensory experience, and also a buffer against climate change. According to the jury, the area between Jaktgatan and Lövängsgatan is a great example of how dense and green cities can look in practice.
Prize for best sustainable urban development. In competition with other urban development projects around the world, Stockholm and Stockholm Royal Seaport received an award for best sustainable urban development project in the category Sustainable Communities. The award was presented at the UN Climate Change Conference in Paris 2015 by the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, a network connecting more than 80 of the world’s megacities. The award is proof that Stockholm is an international leader in sustainable urban development.
