ArmInfo. On August 20, Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan chaired a working meeting to review the implementation progress of major urban development projects in Yerevan, according to the government press service.
Discussions focused on ongoing initiatives and the current status of the "Old Yerevan" and "Firdus 33rd District" urban development projects. Officials presented detailed reports regarding construction timelines, property alienation procedures, and the management of undeveloped areas.
The Prime Minister emphasized the critical importance of completing both major developments and instructed relevant officials to proceed strictly in accordance with the decisions adopted during the meeting.
"Old Yerevan" Project:
Designed as a distinct historical and cultural quarter in the center of the capital, the initiative recreates the architectural look of late 19th- and early 20th-century Yerevan. Bounded by Abovyan, Aram, Buzand, and Koghbatsi streets, the project involves relocating and meticulously restoring authentic historical buildings and architectural fragments using archival materials. The complex will integrate multi-level subterranean and surface spaces, residential apartments, commercial zones, restaurants, and cultural venues, blending historical heritage with a modern urban environment.
