History
editKasperi was mostly built during the 1970s and 1980s.[5] The designing of the neighborhood was inspired by the Tapiola district of Espoo. Kasperi was named after Kasperi Kustaa's Kasperi-building which was located in the area.[1][6]
Later, the Hallilanvuori residential area was built next to a mountain of the same name in southern Kasperi.[7]
