Panga (Pank)
#Tallinn #Lasnamäe #Paevälja
#Bank. Both in the sense of steep #limestone or #rocky coast which is probably what they’re referring to here, and the #financial institution. Very uncertain the street has actually been built. Ran out of money? See #Rünga.

Rünga (Rünk)
#Tallinn #Lasnamäe #Paevälja
1) Block, crag; 2) Bank of clouds. It looked like one of those street names decided (1993) years before the concrete hit the road... All the more so since its virtual neighbor is Panga. But pwned: term designating the #Lasnamäe #limestone banks.
#Lubjavivi
for the limestone mined in the former #Lõunamurd quarry (lit. south quarry) south of #Laagna tee. See also its younger counterpart #Muldvalge.
