Rationale

  • Stroomi beach has a great value because it is located close to the city center and because of residents’ vicinity to the coast. The area has a lot of potential for tourism development, but the lack of connection to the other parts of Tallinn affects it.

Location and scope

A Landscape System Analysis

A.1 Landscape layers and their system context

Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology

  • Description of evolution, status quo and driving forces, is the coastal typology changing? Why is that? (approx 200 signs)

Pelguranna consist of fine sand and silt deposits (Stroomi) with a sandy foreshore which is included in the most relevant landscape units which are sea, coast, park and urban area. Major drivers in the area are geomorphological processes (waves, storms, tides, ice and erosions) and urbanisation. Taking everything into account it is evident that the coastal typology has potential to change in the future mostly depending upon the dominant drivers that were mentioned before with addition of sea level rise.

Green and blue infrastructure

  • Green infrastructures:

1) Stroomi Forest

2) Kopli Cemetery parc

3) Green belt (Puhangu street)

  • Blue infrastructure:

4) Kopli bay

5) Stroomi Beach

  • In the Pelguranna district zone, the major potential elements of green infrastructures are mostly implemented out of the district’s limits. This found explanation because of the hugeness of these infrastructures like the Stroomi forest (135ha) and the Kopli Cemetery parc (99ha). Due to the proximity of these two parcs with housing district’s part, the need of parc inside of the district is not primordial. The Kopli Cemetery parc has a particular story bringing cultural attachment to the habitants of Pelguranna. Established in 1774, the parc was at first use a cemetery welcoming Tallin’s citizens’s graves until 1944. Due to his strategic position, the cemetery has been transformed into a military base during the WWII and finally be reused as a parc from 1950 until now. The blue infrastructure elements are represented by the Kopli Bay giving the strong landscape identity to the district and the Stroomi Beach situated next to it. These elements take his importance by being the busiest attraction of Pelguranna because of its touristic recognition.
  • The only element being menaced by authorities is the Stroomi forest. Its status is making debates between the citizens and the urban planners planning the future of the district. Since 1990 and 2015 the actors are in a conflict situation where the citizens are defending the natural preservation of the forest and the urban planners trying to build roads connecting the neighbouring districts and implementing new housing areas.

Actors and stakeholders

  • Pelguranna is characterized by soviet housing and grassland. Its lands belongs to the public administration of Pöhja-Tallinn municipality. They control land change according with citizen association which are then agreed or refused by the municipality of Tallinn, who comes directly to Taavi Aas, president of the center parti, in constant debate with the gouvernment .
  • The actual ambition of Tallinn for its development is to improve the connection between the historic center and the coast. Because of the last russian dependance, the idea is to look at the nordic city's coasts (oslo, stockholm, helsinki) and follow. The access from the see has to be restored with a new estonian image. Therefore politicians decide with private investissors and contractors to implement high standing appartments and commercial buildings. In this case projects are imposed to the district municipality and universities. Pelguranna could be affected by this approach because of visitors of the Stroomi beach and especially tourists. Residents could be threat, belonging to the working class and primarily russian..

Visual appearance and landscape narrative

  • Which elements are essential for the landscape character?

Long shallow sandy beach hidden behind a thick layer of diverse Soviet time block houses from almost all decades of Soviet occupation. The beach is partly covered with pine forest and grassy areas.

  • Stroomi beach has been an inspiration for centuries. One of the first visualizations of this landscape was created in 1688 by Samuel Waxelberg. It is a map depicting the region mostly in grassland. One of the earliest paintings of Stroomi beach were done by the Estonian artist Paul Burman. Both of his paintings were created in the second half of the 1920s – beginning of the 1930s, showing the landscape of the beach and Stroomi pine forest. In 1936 an illustration from the newspaper shows specific kind of lifestyle typical for the beach. The landscape still represents an inspiration for artists nowadays. In 2015 Estonian artist Kaspar Tamsalu painted the view from the window to the sea, showing the liveliness of the landscape.
  • Both Pelguranna and Stroomi beach have often been mentioned in old newspaper from the second half of 1930s. These articles mainly describe progress and rebirth of Pelguranna and new plans for the development of the area. Additionally, the construction of “good-looking buildings” and modern life on the beach captures identity of the area at that time. Pelguranna also represents an inspiration for poets. The poem “My Tallinn” written by Kirke in 2011 depicts particular atmosphere of the area. In 2012 the well known Estonian contemporary poet Contra wrote “Facebook-born poem”.

A.2 Summary of you landscape system analysis and your development Targets

  • You can summarize your findings with an DPSI(R) Model or a Spider Diagram
  • Link back to the Sustainable Development Goals: Which goals are at risk?

Point 3: Good health and well-being, Point 8: Decent work and economic growth, Point 11: Sustainable cities and communities, Point 13: Climate action, Point 15: Life on land

  • What is your hypothesis for this landscape?

The current situation of Pelguranna shows a district with almost no vicinity with its location near the coastline. Buildings with four to six floors were built and used by the majority of russian rooted citizens. The green park appears to be a border between housing and leisure at the shoreline. The shore itself is mainly used by its surroundings. The hypothesis is based on two aspects. The natural process and man-made interactions. The shoreline will shrink and will narrow through the natural migration of sediments. The population on the other hand will grow and urban sprawl will be the result. Green open space areas which surround the buildings will get less and density of housing will rise.

  • Visualise your hypothesis with one graphic/pict
  • Are there any existing initiatives taking action in this landscape? Do you have a critical perspective on that?
