The quarter between Narva street, Jõe, Ahtri and the current Parda street has a history closely tied to the Radio-Electronics Factory (RET), a significant Estonian electronics company. Architectural historian and heritage conservator Henry Kuningas notes that the area’s development is linked to RET’s operations. A notable office building with a covered facade, previously housing the temporary premises of the National Library and before that several banks, is located at the corner of Narva street and Jõe street. The building received the Culture Capital Prize in 1997 following its transformation from a former electronics industry site. The street’s history reflects the legacy of RET, a key player in Estonia’s radio industry.
