Malmö Malmo locals don't like the Turning Torso.
Posted: Sat April 14, 2007 05:12 AM UTC
...This is what a Swede told me (not from Malmo).

I have doubts this is true.

Could people confirm that this is true or at least that it's the GENERAL concensus among locals.

Thank you.

Yes and no. We like the cool design and the fact that it has put Malmö on the map and that it has kicked Malmö into a more lively and international era than before. Many of us however think that the money spent on it could have gone to cut medical queues etc. but then again, it was built by a housing company and not in any way by the municipality. People not from Malmö seem a bit jealous of it :))) You can see what I've written about it on my Malmö page.

I agree with the last post. I'm an Australian living in Malmo and I have found that most of the locals can't wait to show the torso to you. That's just my experience :-)

Are you a student? :) In that case I can understand if they want to show it to you. Parents with kids in sports halls and swimming pools are less impressed since we've got complete chaos with that sort of thing right now. Nothing has been maintained properly :(
