Before 2008 <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Meripuisto_(Helsinki)" title="Category:Meripuisto (Helsinki)">Meripuisto</a> was hardly a park at all: it was actually a rail yard of <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Helsinki_harbour_rail" title="Category:Helsinki harbour rail">Helsinki harbour rail</a>. Even though the Katajanokka branch was dismantled already in the 1980s, the tracks remained here until July 2008. The park has also served as a wintertime storage for boats, though not anymore.
