Sweden is On Track to Build the World’s Largest City out of Wood!

Construction on Stockholm Wood City dubbed the “world’s first five-minute city” is several months ahead of schedule and is on track to provide 2,000 new homes by 2027. That is, according to Swedish property developer Atrium Ljungberg, which began construction on the world’s largest timber district in October.

“We can tell the story about how to build a liveable city, how to add nature into the city and build something sustainable,” says Håkan Hyllengren, Atrium Ljungberg’s business development director. “It’s not just about wood; it’s the whole concept.”
