Next, I passed over the water and found myself in a very interesting dwelling area.
I am not sure how is this area called but maybe Sluseholmen because that's the name of the main street here.
I find it very dangerous: it's seawater and connected to sea so how do they maintain its level?
When I saw this, I thought only the triangular roofs are missing for them to look like old houses in a row. Later I read that exactly this was the idea presented here, many different architects were involved in getting such a result.
This is a brand new local school.
I love Soviet-era commieblock areas and buildings both in former USSR and in Eastern Europe. Highway ("Magistraal" in Estonian) takes me through such areas and some nice blocks are located right next to them. I am happy that I can enjoy these buildings and areas in my hometown Tallinn every day. (In case you wanted to see shopping mall Magistral in Mustamäe, please go to https://magistral.ee.)
