On the way to TKK, along the highway west of downtown Helsinki, is this bay (Laajalahti), and this little tugboat was always there, dwarfed by the shiny modern buildings on the Espoo shore beyond (such as the Nokia HQ).

The stepped Deloitte building along Porkkalankatu.

Nearby, an older power plant, seemingly; I'm curious to figure out the identity of it more precisely.
