Ahon kerrostalot

Why locals love it

Aho's Block of Flats that lies on Koskikatu and Jaakonkatu have been designed by Alvar Aalto. Simple houses don't look much from the outside but still they fill up all the characteristics of Aalto's Design. Houses were built during the Rebuilding Era, 1945 - 1959, and still stand in the City Center.
