Now you think this post will be about nothing, but it is. It's about Ingenting. The office and residential area Ingenting is located in Solna, not far from where we live. The area, like the neighbouring Ingenting forest, is named after the Ingenting manor, which was part of Karlberg Castle.
Housing, offices and streets
Both Johan Tobias Sergel and Carl Michael Bellman are said to have lived or stayed here for periods of time. However, the 18th century buildings were demolished in connection with the construction of the Tomteboda postal terminal. The City of Solna is now building housing, offices, streets and squares in the area. I have been fascinated by the name Ingenting since I moved here, but the origin of the name is apparently disputed ...

Thanks for that lesson:-)
So personally, I would not want to live in Nothing. The name gives completely the wrong vibes if I'm honest. The fact that they renamed Tomteboda Post Terminal to Nothing is sad and reflects what happens to written letters - soon nothing left if you say so.

BP, hehe... I don't think I want to live in Nothing either. Of course, I don't think they renamed the postal terminal, it just happens to be on the same sign. Otherwise it would be a bit funny

Frankie & Co, haha... well, you could say that.
