"Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has approved the project, with
the construction works already underway," the director, Hayk Demoyan,
told PanArmenian.Net.
Demoyan said the new building has been designed by leading architect
Sashur Kalashyan, who is also the co-author and architect of the
Genocide Memorial Complex at Tsitsernakaberd.
The new building is expected to be inaugurated ahead of the Armenian
Genocide centennial to be marked on April 24, 2015.
"The main building of the museum will be used for showcasing archival
documents. The number of the Genocide archives has doubled in the
past four years," said Demoyan.
