YEREVAN’S ARCHITECTURAL MONUMENTS TO BE RESETTLED INTO ONE AREA

YEREVAN, JULY 13. ARMINFO. Within a year the Architectural Council of
Yerevan will make a list of the capital’s architectural monuments,
says Yerevan’s chief architect Samvel Daniyelyan.

There are two categories of monuments: to be preserved on their
historical location and to be relocated. Daniyelyan says that the
scattered historical monuments do not reflect the whole color of
Yerevan and discord with the architectural style of the “new center.”

He says that new the construction of business centers and hotels in
the center of Yerevan requires new stylistic approaches. It would be
absurd to build in XXI in the style of XIX, says Daniyelyan.

And so the municipality has decided to bring together part of
Yerevan’s architectural monuments into a small area covering Aram,
Buzand and Koghbatsi streets.
