«From the sea and on along Narva Highway, we will have an entertainment and shopping zone splitting towards Solaris and Rotermann Quarter,» said Koko Architects partner Andrus Kõresaar.
Due to the main street and abovementioned «gallery», city centre will be pedestrian friendly and cars will not be passing thru in times to come.
