I read from somewhere that there's a consideration of possibly tearing down the Kauniainen swimming hall, and replacing it either with a new school, or perhaps a new school + swimming hall combination.
While the hall isn't up to modern comfort standards... it has nothing fancy, I still like it a lot! It is always free of crows, has basic swimming possibilities, and is nearby me.
I say keep it!
In this article we can see some old photos and advertisements about the swimming hall, including the time before its construction. The photos were hanging by the door at the swimming hall.

"Mongolia is kind of close, right? Story about an attempt to ski everywhere in the world where there's snow. And in some places where there isn't. On and off-piste skiing on all continents, skiing into craters of live volcanoes, climbing, photography, and travel." The Planetskier blog focuses on skiing, caving, climbing, biking, flying, sauna, and swimming adventures around the world.
