Nordstaden is a central district of Gothenburg, Sweden, to the north of Stora Hamnkanalen and a part of Gothenburg's original city area. The district is divided by Östra Hamngatan, previously Östra Hamnkanalen, into Östra Nordstaden and Västra Nordstaden. The district has an area of 42 hectares. The last houses in Östra Nordstaden were torn down in May 1971 to give space for the shopping centre Nordstan. Västra Nordstaden mostly consists of older buildings, such as Kronhuset, the Gothenburg City Hall, the Bourse, the German Church, Ostindiska huset and the former Sjöbefälsskolan. There are a couple of newer buildings, such as the Gothenburg opera house and Traktören which is one of Gothenburg's council buildings. There are also many residential areas in Västra Nordstaden, primarily on Kvarnberget. The Gothenburg tram stop Nordstan is located in the east, between the shopping centre Nordstan and the Gothenburg Central Station.
