The dynamic architectural design and picturesque location of this modern civic building near the Tjörnin lakeside has made it a landmark in downtown Reykjavík.

Tjörnin means "the lake" or "the pond". It’s a glacial lake in central Reykjavík and next to the Reykjavik City Hall and several museums. There is a great place to watch or feed birds, and a nice walk you can walk around the lake.
