LARGE-SCALE URBAN CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS ARE BEING CARRIED OUT IN YEREVAN
The structure of the urban construction council was enlarged, including NGOs, so that the latter can participate in taking decisions or prevent implementation of those they struggled against for years. Samvel Danielian, chief architect of Yerevan, said about this.
They have already specified the main layout of the Main Avenue. The architects had to decide all the details concerning the height and the stories of the building that are envisaged to be built in the circle of Amirian, Buzandi and Zakian Streets, so that the new buildings do not hinder the main view of the edifices from the square.
It’s still hard to predict anything about the fate of the historical monuments that are situated in the area of the Main Avenue. These edifices are being registered, calculated and evaluated. Separate documents are being composed for each building. Some of them will remain on their spots, while others will be removed to another place.
At the same time, the architects have made a suggestion to gather all the historical edifices in one place. These buildings will represent various layers of Yerevan's historical architecture. Hopefully, this plan will be implemented in the best way. As only mechanical restoration of these edifices will deprive them of their true value. To avert such tragedy, it was decided to leave the buildings of high value on their spots, without removing them.
Besides the Main and the Northern Avenues there are many areas due to construction in Yerevan, such as Kond, Kozern, the neighboring area of Grigor Lousavorcih Avenue and the notorious Firdousi Street. The architects have elaborated the layouts of all these territories. Kond is on the first place and it is not excluded that the architects’ board will announce an additional competition for that district not to damage its historical coloring.
