The location of the property dates back to a time when Aalto University’s operations were not yet fully concentrated in Otaniemi.
AYY provides affordable housing for its members. In line with AYY’s strategy, housing operations are focused near the Aalto University campus. Divesting properties located farther from the campus supports this development. AYY’s housing investment plan is directed toward Otaniemi.
