The ship

I am fascinated by my city and it’s history. Like this building for instance.  It was built in 1898 and was originally a department store called KM Lundbergs. In 1902 the department store was remodeled and changed name to NK and moved to where it still is on Hamngatan.

The new lodgers was Nordstjernan – a Swedish familyowned investment company and shipowning business – and they redecorated the building to look like a big ship with a spar, observation post and figure heads.

The weather is really awful today with ice rain which gives us an icy and slippery road surface. I really hope it will be better soon.
