Solna strand (known as ''Vreten'' until 18 August 2014) is a subway station on the Stockholm metro blue line. It was opened on 18 August 1985 as part of the extension between Västra skogen and Rinkeby and is located in the Huvudsta region of the Solna Municipality. The platform is located in bedrock, below ground level under Vretenvägen. The entrance is in the north end at Korta gatan. The station's theme is defined by artwork created by the Japanese-Swedish sculptor Takashi Naraha in 1985 called ''Himmelen av kub'' (''The heaven of cube'').

Central Sundbyberg
Central Sundbyberg (''Centrala Sundbyberg'') is considered the oldest and most original part of Sundbyberg Municipality in Sweden. It is one of Stockholm's oldest satellite towns. Its proximity to Stockholm City Centre, nostalgic environment and well-connected transportation networks has made this part of town an attractive housing area. Forms of public transport include the Stockholm Metro (''Tunnelbanan''), Stockholm commuter rail (''Pendeltåg'') and SL buses. Trams returned to Sundbyberg in 2013 after 54 years of absence when Tvärbanan was expanded from Alvik to Solna. Tracks are laid in one of the main streets with two stops in this area. On the small streets of Central Sundbyberg, there are boutiques, restaurants, banks and other important services. Areas *Rutnätsstaden ("the grid town"): the area between Tulegatan, Ursviksvägen and the railway. Mostly multiresidential buildings from the 1940s, but the east edge has offices from the 1960s/70s.

Lilla Alby
Lilla Alby is a district in the southern corner of Sundbyberg Municipality, Sweden. It lies southwest of the railway Mälaren Line. It is separated from Bromma (Stockholm Municipality) by bay Bällstaviken (part of lake Mälaren) to the southwest, and borders Solna Municipality to the south and east, and Centrala Sundbyberg to the north. Lilla Alby has 4,235 citizens (as of 2013). History The earliest account of the name ''Alby'' (meaning ”Alder village”) comes from 1553, referencing property of the church and local farmers. The farm ''Lilla Alby gård'' (”Little Alby farm”) was a part of greater farm complexes, mainly ''Huvudsta gård'' and ''Alby gård''. A seat farm from the 1620s, called '' Ahlby säteri'', is the oldest remaining building. The current ''Lilla Alby gård'' was built in 1833. When the train station was built in Sundbyberg in 1877, access to the area was greatly improved. The name ''Lilla Alby'' came into use in the late 1880s, when the land owner st ...

Sundbyberg Municipality
Sundbyberg Municipality (''Sundbybergs kommun'' or ''Sundbybergs stad'') is a municipality in Stockholm County in east central Sweden, just north of the capital Stockholm. Sundbyberg is wholly within the Stockholm urban area and has a 100% urban population. Sundbyberg was detached from Bromma (which since 1916 is in Stockholm Municipality) in 1888 as a market town (''köping''). It got the title of a city in 1927. In 1949 parts of Solna Municipality and Spånga Municipality (when the rest of Spånga was amalgamated into Stockholm) were added. A proposed merger with Solna in 1971 was never implemented, making Sundbyberg, with an area of , the smallest municipality in Sweden, but also the most densely populated. The municipality prefers to call itself a ''city'', which, however, has no legal significance. History Sundbyberg was for a long time only an area of small agriculture value and most of all used as a place to spend summer for rich families in the city. In 1863 almost ...

Lake Mälaren
A lake is an area filled with water, localized in a basin, surrounded by land, and distinct from any river or other outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean, although, like the much larger oceans, they do form part of the Earth's water cycle. Lakes are distinct from lagoons, which are generally coastal parts of the ocean. Lakes are typically larger and deeper than ponds, which also lie on land, though there are no official or scientific definitions. Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which usually flow in a channel on land. Most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams. Natural lakes are generally found in mountainous areas, rift zones, and areas with ongoing glaciation. Other lakes are found in endorheic basins or along the courses of mature rivers, where a river channel has widened into a basin. Some parts of the world have many lakes formed by the chaotic drainage patterns left over from the last ice ...
