The planned Nobel Centre will ruin one of Stockholm's most beautiful and well-known areas. The building is far too large, it will block the view of the newly renovated National Museum and it will dominate the area. The architecture doesn't blend in with the older buildings surrounding it. Stockholm doesn't need any more box-like buildings! Furthermore, to demolish the beautiful Customs House is a sacrilege that shouldn't be allowed. Does the Nobel Foundation really want to be seen as following in the footsteps of Hjalmar Mehr et al. who ruined central Stockholm in the 1950s and 60s? If a Nobel Centre is needed, build it somewhere else!
