Pikksilma (Pikksilm)

Lit. Long eye. Telescope. Street planned in 2011, along with Kiikri, renaming (and extending?) the northern part of Bensiini. New development in Kadriorg where a ship was dug up during construction, about 200 m from the current shore. See Liiva for information on Estonia’s and Tallinn’s slow rise from the sea. Possibly sunk due to fire, the ship was named Peeter after the excavator operator, and, built no earlier than 1296, probably sunk around 1320-1330. Interesting to note that this ship used moss as caulking. See also Tuukri, where a similar find was made next to this.
