Service point description
Designed by architect Einari Teräsvirra, Unioninkatu 35 was built in the early 1960s to serve the needs of biochemistry and radiochemistry. After a while the premises were converted for social sciences. The most recent renovation was completed in 2014, when the library was converted into offices.
