The Asemapäällikönhovi (literally, Station Master's Court) building is a mixed-use complex located at Asemapäällikönkatu 3, in the Eastern Pasila (Itä-Pasila) area of the district of Pasila in Helsinki, Finland. The building was designed by architect Eino Tuompo in the Brutalist style, and completed in 1976. It has received acclaim for its bold architecture. In 2020 it was featured by the German Architecture Museum in the exhibition SOS Brutalism. It is also listed by the city of Helsinki on the official Helsinki tourism website myhelsinki.fi as an architectural attraction of historical significance. The building is also referenced on the tourism page for the district of Eastern Pasila. Emporis includes the building in its global database of "buildings of high public and economic value." Of the total floor area of 15,921 square metres (171,370 sq ft), about 75% is dedicated to commercial uses and 25% to residential flats, of which there are 60. The building is owned by Osakeyhtiö Asemapäällikönhovi – a standard joint-stock company, rather than a housing joint-stock company (asunto-osakeyhtiö). The top floor of the residential tower is dedicated to the following common facilities for residents:

A 10 x 3 metre swimming pool, heated using district heating. The pool is open every morning to all residents for communal use as well as in the evenings for private use during each resident's own sauna time slot. Two saunas, each with dedicated showering and changing facilities and access to the pool. Each resident can book a weekly private sauna hour which includes private use of the pool. A gym with dedicated showering and changing facilities. A drying room (for drying large fabrics like sheets). Two roof decks. The basement floors of the building include both heated and refrigerated storage units, one of both corresponding to each flat.
