Decided to make one of my own 'Guess where?' pictures, as is popular here in the forums. We'll see how many people outside Finland know this GuessWhereSmaller.jpg
So where is this picture taken and what is the name of the building in the picture? (Bonus brownie points, if you know what is there in the building )

If you are Finnish or otherwise Scandinavian, don't spoil the fun before giving the other forum members outside the Scandinavia a chance to guess Just state 'I know' or something similar instead of posting the answer straight away ;-)

In the foregroud, it looks like some construction may be being carried out, seeing the red ans yellow barrier to the left?

Yes, there is some done there, and some changes in traffic routing. Not entirely sure what they are constructing there though.

PM sent.  It reminds me a lot of the Space Needle Tower in Seattle, Washington which was built for the 1962 World's Fair.

Another correct answer And yes, I certainly can see the similarities between the two of them

I have noticed something along those lines

Do you know/can you guess/will you otherwise find out where the picture was taken? So many have given the right answer that I may soon reveal it on this thread, but I'll yet wait a small time and see how many others will reply with the correct answer

I have to admit the same applies to me pretty much, but with Finland instead of the Americas.

When someone shows something from another country unless it's world famous, I have no idea.

There's a similar one in London, but it's now closed to the public.

I see. That probably is way more famous than the one I show here.

Nope.
I just took the train from Jyväskylä and back and spent some time around railway yards that looked interesting. I think I saw it from the train, but the area has changed quite a bit now, so I don't remember exactly (it was 2002 )

I see. I should have guessed you preferred the train.

You have a special rail system with the Russian width, so I was very keen on seeing some of that.
