102. Science Centre 2

🧠 I loved this view taking in the Science Centre as well as Glasgow uni in the background.

⭐ I think the sky looks beautiful and I didn't edit it separately this time.

➡️I wonder if it would look better it I had the uni tower more central between the two science centre buildings.

93. Science Centre

🧠 I thought the tower looked good framed by the two other structures, especially with the light and shade contrast.

⭐I footered about quite a bit with the shadow level and sky contrast and am happy with the look.

➡️Should more of the building on the left have been brightened up...?

Another landmark rises above the old industrial district of Myllytulli — almost like a wizard’s tower. The red-brick tower and adjoining building once formed part of the Veljekset Åström leather factory. Completed in the 1920s, they served as the factory’s water tower and power station. The factory produced, among other things, leather boots, belts, and saddles before closing in 1960.

In 1988, Finland’s first science centre began operating here. The complex has been under renovation since 2023 and is scheduled to reopen in October 2026. As part of the restoration, the tower was given a new copper roof that gleams in the evening light and will gradually return to the familiar green patina I remember from earlier years.
