Less well known than Puu-Vallila, Puu-Käpylä is another fine example of a garden city, designed by Martti Välikangas and built in the 1920s-1925s to meet the housing needs of the working classes. Today, the complex has a charming old-fashioned character, with colorful wooden houses surrounded by small gardens. The Käpylä district was originally built as an Olympic village for the 1952 Olympic Games. Martti Välikangas was born in 1893 and died in 1973. In Helsinki, he also designed the building at 46 Albertinkatu Street.
