TREE-PLANTING IN THE CENTER OF YEREVAN
Soon Flowers Will Decorate Capital
320 trees, mainly breadfruit trees and maples, have been already
planted in Abovian, Koryun, Terian, Moskovian and other streets of
Yerevan Kentron borogh. On April 16, “Kentron Greenery Planting” CJSC
will plant other 1000-1200 trees and 12-13 thousand bushes. Samvel
Aghajanian, head of “Kentron Greenery Planting” company, said that
Yerevan Municipality promised to provide the communities of the
city with trees, so that the residents can plant trees in their own
yards, too.
The employees of “Kentron Greenery Planting” will soon begin
planting flowers in the neighboring streets of the Theatre Square,
while in several parts of Mashtots avenue the former lawns will be
restored. Samvel Aghajanian assured that the lawn of the Republic
Square will be bigger and more beautiful this year, decorated with
new sorts of flowers.
Abovian Boulevard also will be rich in flowers except for the park
as there are problems with the water supply system. Besides, the
half-built construction in the park hasn~Rt been ruined yet and now it
has turned into a garbage heap. There used to be a lawn with flowers
in the past. They hope that this year this problem will be solved.
“Will Yerevan ever become a city of roses?” we asked Aghajanian. He
said that “If the water supply system functions properly, we can
do everything.” The reconstruction works of the water supply system
have already began.
