Swamp, march, bog. Two streets called Soo: 1) the old one, in #Nõmme, now known as #Alliksoo; and 2) the current one, in #Kalamaja, named for its proximity to #KalamäeSoo (see #Erika), and formerly occupying parts of both #UuKalamaja and #Tööstuse,

Street with the following approximate lineage: #Luha (?-1922), Soo (1922-1940), #Kaisla (1940-1941), Soo (1941-1991), and finally #Alliksoo. And so (pun intended), given its repeated naming as #Soo, bog or marsh, basically: somewhere wet. One of a #hydrology-themed sector, see #Häilu.
