Norrmalm -- North of Gamla Stan, this is the cultural and commercial heart of modern Stockholm.
Norrmalm's major pedestrian shopping street is Drottninggatan, which starts at the bridge to the Old Town.
In New York City terms, Norrmalm would be like staying in the Times Square area, whereas Vasastaden would be equivalent to staying in the neighborhood of 60th or 70th Street.
Stockholm is built on islands, except for the modern centre (Norrmalm), focused on the ugly Sergels Torg.
The triangular island Stadsholmen and its neighbours accommodate Gamla Stan, separated from Norrmalm by the narrow channels of Norrstršm near the royal palace, but connected by several bridges.
Östermalm doesn't have quite the convenience of Norrmalm and Vasastaden, but it still is not so far removed from the action as to be called inconvenient.
