With its recently initiated reconstruction of the Garegin Nzhdeh and
Alec Manoogian streets, Shushi’s two main thoroughfares, the Hayastan
All-Armenian Fund has begun to restore the city’s economic and social
infrastructures. The street-revitalization project is being realized
through contributions made by the Russian-Armenian community during
Telethon 2009.

Following the construction of sewage, water-delivery, and drainage
systems, the streets and sidewalks (about 950 meters) will be paved
and furbish, and light posts will be installed throughout. The project
will be completed with the installation of 1.5-meter-wide lawns
separating the streets from the sidewalks.
