It's not the main library of the city, but it is very central, and I have good memories of taking our toddler there, not to mention having hungout since then.
The wikipedia page shows some nice images, and I'm pretty sure the building has featured on hacker news in the past too!

- rdl 3y agoWow. I wonder to what degree that's designed for Helsinki residents vs. visitors (from elsewhere in Finland or beyond) -- since it's located next to a few other tourist-centric places. I'd absolutely visit when in Helsinki, especially in the winter.
