A total of nine apartment buildings provide a home for over 600 tenants nearby Tampere University of Technology, Police University College and Teekkari sauna. Tekniikantornit A, B and C were built in 2001 and D, E, F later in 2002. Tieteentornit was built in 2009. The most significant difference between the two housing locations 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 and a separate bedroom. Based on tenants' observations, queueing for a single-room apartment takes about an year and bigger apartments may take longer. Queue time for a shared apartment usually varies during semester – in the beginning of the semester queues typically take few months and shorten in the spring.
