Light Rail is about seven kilometers long tramway linking Stockholm shuttle and metro crosswise, hence the name.
The track runs in a semicircle south, west and north of central Stockholm, from Sickla udde via Hammarby sjöstad, Gullmarsplan, Årsta, Liljeholmen, Gröndal, Stora Essingen, Alvik, Ulvsunda, Central Sundbyberg and Solna Solna station. The stretch from Solna to Solna station will be opened to traffic August 18, 2014.
Johannes Weilbach was a Danish ship builder at Tegelviken in Stockholm. He died at the age of 42 during the second cholera outbreak of 1858. He was buried at the cholera cemetery at Skansbacken.
From wikipedia:
"The Stockholm Globe Arena or, in Swedish, Globen ("The Globe") is an arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
It is currently the largest hemispherical building in the world and took two and a half years to build. Shaped like a large golf ball, it has a diameter of 110 meters (361 feet) and an inner height of 85 meters (279 feet). The volume of the building is 600,000 cubic meters (21,188,800 cubic feet)"

Sthlm 01 in not a classical skyscraper. At a closer look you will see how extra ordinary this newcomer actually is. The emblematic geometry of the tower – a conical star that gradually extends its perimeter as it rises into the sky – minimises its footprint on this limited site. On the two different ground levels of this office building there are commercial units while a restaurant and sky bar on the top level of the high-rise offer spectacular views of the city.
The façade of the tower presents a striking chromotope that gives identity to the new district and provides a landmark for orientation.

I sense some sort of conspiracy here. I have been trying to get this shot for a couple of days. It is the ticket hall at the Gullmarsplan metro station. On day one, the memory card started acting up, and I didn't want to risk losing any photos, so I gave up. Tried again the following day, equipped with all my memory cards. Same thing happened again. By then I suspected foul play. I figured the area must be haunted. Then over the weekend I gave it another go, and this time it went very smooth. The reflection comes from the nearby high rise Sthlm 01.
