Flagman project: Kotka. Old port

A unique location between Helsinki and St Petersburg, accessible to both residents of Helsinki and Russian shoppers. The E18 motorway is the most important road in Scandinavia, connecting the capitals – Oslo, Stockholm, Helsinki and St Petersburg. 1.7 million Finnish residents live and work within Helsinki and a 90 minute drive of Kotka.

The Russian border is an easy 40 minute drive from Kotka making the Designer Outlet Village highly accessible and attractive to Russian consumers. It will also be the first Designer Outlet Village accessible directly by ferry for Russian shoppers. More

Flagman project: Kotka. Old port

The redevelopment of Kotka Old Port is designed to extend the current City Centre down to the waterfront, with The National Maritime Museum as the most eastern point.

The development is joined to the City Centre by extending the key civic spine of Kotka through the middle of the development. Key buildings, restaurants and entertainment facilities are located on and directly face the waterfront. An inner green spine links the key entrances together and back into the city. More

Flagman project: Kotka. Old port

The Designer Outlet Village has been designed to be bright and welcoming to all visitors. The unique location and the surrounding facilities will ensure that the mall is enticing for a wide range of customers. The extensive use of local materials including Kotka granite and timber help to reinforce the local character of the scheme.

A dedicated eatery area is located in an ideal location within the centre of the scheme. Through the use of large sliding glass walls, this area opens up to the waterfront during the summer time extending out to the restaurant promenade. More
