Oslo's big municipal housing scheme of 1917-25: 18 blocks of three-storey slemmet-brick flats around large planted courtyards, tree-lined streets named after Norwegian composers, designed by Harald Hals and Adolf Jensen Talberg on English garden-city ideas. Torshovparken in the middle rises to 87 m with a view over city and fjord.
