Future
Lake Munksjön in central Jönköping is
in clear focus of attention. The municipality
wants to create space for new establishments
in the city-centre area. Accordingly,
sections of the lake have been
reclaimed and atolls have been created
for future housing, offices, stores, and
a new cultural centre.
Norrporten is monitoring the situation
with keen interest with a view to future
land development.
