History

The old custom house from 1868, on Nordre Toldbod, serves as the headquarters for By & Havn.

The general partnership organisation, was established in October 2007, with the abolition of three organisations: Ørestadsselskabet I/S, Frederiksbergbaneselskabet I/S and Københavns Havn A/S. The headquarters was established in the old custom house at Nordre Toldbod. At the time of formation, the organisation was named Arealudviklingsselskabet I/S, but on May 14, 2008, it was changed to By & Havn.[1]
