New Apartments Approved for Lilla Essingen

The Stockholm City Council is set to approve the construction start for 122 new rental apartments, including 12 service apartments, in the Fotogenköket 2 block on Lilla Essingen. Construction is planned to begin in late 2026 with occupancy from late 2028, at an estimated cost of SEK 457 million. The Moderates and Sweden Democrats have reserved their position, arguing that Svenska Bostäder should not build expensive apartments but instead focus on renovating existing properties or selling the project to a private developer to reduce company debt.
