NORWAY Aker Brygge former shipyard and heavy industry, but from 1985 one of Oslo’s largest property and tourism projects.
NORWAY - photograph by GLYN GENIN Oslo Aker Brygge is an area in Oslo, Norway. It is west of Pipervika, an arm of the Oslo Fjord, on the former ship yard of Akers Mekaniske Verksted, which was shut down in 1982. Before the shipyard was established there in 1854, the area was known as Holmen. It was an old yard where some industrial corporations established, and a suburban establishment grew in the early 1800s.
