Description Ehte 2 is a unique 17 story residential highrise that stands as a singular architectural anomaly in the Pelgulinn neighborhood. Reaching a height of 53.0 meters, it is noticeably taller and structurally different from the common 14 or 17 story red brick towers that surround it.
Unlike its neighbors, Ehte 2 was an experimental project constructed using a specific large panel system with a light grey and white finish, making it the only building of this exact design in Estonia. This "one of a kind" status is often attributed to it being a pilot for high density housing solutions that were never mass replicated in other districts. The building’s location is set for a major urban transformation; it sits directly adjacent to the Putukaväil (Pollinator Highway), a 13 kilometer long green corridor and "linear park" currently being developed to connect the city center with the seaside. Furthermore, as of 2026, the Tallinn City Government has officially approved the Pelguranna Tram route, which will run right past the building along the Putukaväil/Paavli corridor, finally providing Ehte 2 and surrounding areas with a rail connection to the rest of the city.
