The project on construction of a hotel near the Republic Square metro
station has caused the architects' indignation.
Architect Sassoun Kalashyan said at today's press conference that it
is envisaged to erect the hotel in such a way that the metro station
and its famous fountain in the shape of a flower will find themselves
in the yard of the building. Kalashyan thinks that the 7-storey hotel
will spoil the image of Republic Square, at which the governmental
buildings are situated.
Moreover, the problem of the parking area of the hotel still hangs in
the air. It will be impossible to build an underground parking site
near the metro station, and there will simple be no place for a great
number of cars on the narrow. As regards the Municipality's position
about the project, the architect said that the Municipality considers
the project from the viewpoint of business and attraction of
investments.
Kalashyan said that the author of the project is the chief architect
of Armenia Narek Sargsyan.
