Tekniikan- and Tieteentornit are TOAs's housing localities in Tampereen Hervanta. Overall nine apartment buildings provides a home more than 600 tenants nearby Tampere University of Technology and Police University College. Tekniikantornits' buldings A, B, C were built in 2001 and D, E, F later in 2002. Tieteentornit was built in 2009. The most significant difference between the two building groups is the 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, a separate bedroom, thus being suitable for couples too.

Based on the observations by tenants: getting a single-room apartment takes about an year, though bigger apartments may take more. Getting a shared apartment usually depends on the time of the year: usually getting one takes a few months in the beginning of a semester but in spring it takes less time.
