A Streetcar Named Desire

You can actually rent this streetcar and let it take you wherever you desire! This vintage tram, # 208, was delivered April 10, 1928, and was in service on line # 9 between Järntorget (Iron Market) and Saltholmen (Salt Island) until September 2, 1967. That was the day before H-day, i.e. the day we went over to right hand traffic (right = höger). As you can see, it has doors on the wrong side. This tram has room for 48 seating passengers on wooden benches. After renovation it has been available for party tours since June 9, 1992. 

Stockholm Town Hall

On King's Island in Stockholm, on the shores of the Riddarfjärd, is the Town Hall (Stadshuset), a red brick building with green copper roofs which is the great landmark and emblem of Stockholm (by Ragnar Östberg, 1911-23). At the southeast corner of the building is a square tower crowned by an open lantern, on the tip of which (106m/350ft) are the three golden crowns of the Swedish coat of arms. From the platform below the bell cote (lift) there are fine views.
