A Cute Motorway Guard Part III

In the corner of the stairway was another old, valuable looking piece of furniture.

And at the top were more built in cupboards with lots of empty files. The sheer amount of storage space here was amazing.

Catalogues to an antiquarian bookshop? They are official, it says. This must be a luxury book shop, then. The clerks didn’t even know what they were selling in those I’ve visited.

Moving deeper upstairs.

Carpets and egg packaging on the walls? Is this modern art or a joke?

A newspaper from 2003, around 20 years ago. Back then a 100 square meter apartment in Kruununhaka cost 390 000 euros. Nowadays it’s at least double if not triple the amount. I paid almost 200 000 euros for my 22 square meters in Kallio the same spring this photo was taken. This is how fortunes are made, kids.

I’m still not really sure, what this room is about.

There’s even a massive collection of buttons on the floor.

It looks like there have been even more cartons on the wall.

There was even a beautiful old oven in the room.

I still don’t get this installation.

Time to see the other rooms upstairs. There were plenty of them.

Another kitchen. It looks like even this building had two apartments: one downstairs and one upstairs.

There was plenty of cupboard space in the kitchen.

Loads and loads of Disney magazines. Collectors would have loved this sight.

One more post to go.
