Yerevan chief architect Narek Sargsyan, speaking to reporters today,
outlined the urban projects planned in the Armenian capital in the
coming three years.
Sargsyan listed the square adjacent to the Khachatur Abovyan statue
and Brazil Square (next to Hrazdan stadium) as being in the work
for construction. Other plans include implementing the "Old Yerevan"
program, building a hotel next to the Republic Square metro station,
developing Melik-Adamyan St., as well as reconstructing the squares
adjacent to the circus and the train station.
Furthermore, the chief architect noted that a new urban council with
new regulations and structure will be established, as well as the
development of a concept of construction regulations for Republic
Square.
Sargsyan also mentioned the building of new museums in the city.
"The Charles Aznavour house-museum will open in Yerevan at the
start of October. There are also plans to build a Hrant Matevosyan
house-museum," he said.
The architect also emphasized the importance of building new streets to
ease traffic in main thoroughfares in the city. A direct link between
Amiryan and Proshyan streets is in the works, as well as joining Aram
Khachatryan and Mamikonyants streets, and Saryan St. to Surb Zoravor
Church and Ghazar Parpetsi Lane, he said.
