T1 is a project of Pro Kapital Grupp. T1 was designed by Italian architect Antonio Lavieri and was built by Merko Ehitus Eesti AS.[1] T1 was opened in 2018.[2]

T1 has shopping area of 55,000 square metres (590,000 sq ft) and consists of over 200 stores. On the rooftop, there is Ferris wheel rising 120 m above sea level. This wheel is the first rooftop Ferris wheel in Europe.[2]

AS Tallinna Moekombinaat, the owner of the shopping center, soon experienced financial difficulties, and in 2020 the company went into reorganization.[3] On June 2, 2021, AS Tallinna Moekombinaat went bankrupt by the decision of the Harju County Court, and AS Pro Kapital Grupp lost control over the subsidiary.[4] On June 28, 2021, the bankruptcy trustee put the T1 shopping center up for auction with a starting price of 85 million euros.[5] There was also an attempt to sell the center at an initial price of 65 million, but a buyer was finally found on the third attempt and at an initial price of 55 million.[6]
