    CENTRAL PART OF YEREVAN IN NEED OF FUNCTIONAL RELIEF

    ARKA
    Feb 9, 2009

    YEREVAN, February 9. /ARKA/. Samvel Danielyan, architect general of
    Yerevan, thinks the central part of Yerevan needs functional relief.

    On Monday, speaking at a briefing, he said some functions should
    be moved from the present downtown to other areas to ensure equal
    development to all districts.

    The architect proposed to establish city centers and offices along
    highways entering Yerevan and build apartment blocks here.

    The same applies to international organizations - they don't want to
    establish their offices elsewhere but the central part of the city.

    That is why Armenian government has worked out a project implying
    creation of an international center on the area including Isakov
    Avenue, Victory Bridge and Hrazdan Gorge.

    Danielyan said that houses will be built here for international
    offices and business and cultural centers.

    He also pointed out reconstruction of the city's districts as one of
    urban planning objectives.

    He said that conditions of people living in these districts should
    be improved.

    The architect general said that construction is now under way in Kond,
    in the territory surrounding the city's main avenue and the areas
    adjacent to the wine combine.

    "We expect the project of reconstruction of Kond will be presented to
    the Urban Planning Councilby late February", Danielyan said adding
    that all areas subject to reconstruction in 2009 have already been
    listed.
