Nedre Elvehavn
Nedre Elvehavn is a borough of Trondheim, Norway located east of Nidelven opposite Midtbyen (but generally considered as a part of the city center). The borough is located north of Bakklandet, west of Møllenberg and south of Nyhavna. In the late 1990s the borough went through a major renovation, resulting in a new and expensive area close to the city centre with business, shopping, restaurants, pubs and housing.
The area has developed on the site of Ørens Mekaniske Verksted and Trondheims Mekaniske Verksted, a mechanical workshop once the largest employer in Trondheim. The industrial site became disused in the late 1990s and turned into a new high-end area, though some of the original buildings and artifacts have been kept, including a canal and a crane. The area includes the shopping centre Solsiden, a hotel, marina and the Trondheim offices of many companies, including DnB NOR, Vital, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Cap Gemini, Deloitte, Petrojarl, the British Consulate, the Mexican Consulate, the Polish Consulate, Kjeldsberg, Google, NextGenTel, Radio 1, Scandinavian Airlines and InCreo Interactive Creations AS. Across the street from Nedre Elvehavn is Trondheim Art Academy, part of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
Almost all buses running from the east into town stop at Nedre Elvehavn, as does the commuter train service Trønderbanen at Lademoen Station. Nedre Elvehavn is within walking distance of the city center and Trondheim Central Station.
