{{ ::ttornit4.jpg |}} Tekniikan- and Tieteentornit are TOAS's housing locations in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hervanta|Hervanta]], Tampere. A total of nine apartment buildings provide a home for over 600 tenants nearby [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tampere_University|Tampere University Hervanta Campus]] (formerly TUT), [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_University_College_(Finland)|Police University College]] and [[https://tampereenteekkarit.fi/en/teekkarisauna/|Teekkari sauna]]. Tekniikantornit A, B and C (Tekniikankatu 10) were built in 2001 and D, E, F (Tekniikankatu 14) later in 2002. Tieteentornit (Tekniikankatu 16) was built in 2009. The most significant difference between the two housing locations is the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_ventilation|heat recovery ventilation]] at Tieteentornit. The apartments are unfurnished, mainly single-room apartments (27,5m²), or shared flats with common kitchen-living room combinations per apartment. In addition, Tieteentornit provides two-room apartments for families and bigger single-room apartments (39,5-42,5m²) including kitchen-living room and a separate bedroom. Based on tenants' observations, queueing for a single-room apartment takes usually about 10–12 months. Queue times vary during the semester. For a shared apartment, the queues typically take few months at the beginning of the semester and queues shorten in the spring.
