CRIMINAL CONFESSION OF THE CHIEF ARCHITECT
Support A1+!«In which street do you live, Mr. Architect?» asked the correspondent of “Haylur” to the guest of the National Press Club Yerevan chief Architect Samvel Danielyan. “I do not live in a street, I live in a yard near the school N71”, informed the latter.
He informed that construction work is also being done in the yard where he lives, but the yard of the school N 71 will be preserved. The correspondent of “Armenian Times” asked what is the aim of building 18-storeyed building in the center of Yerevan. The answer was sensational, “Maybe from the architectural point of view they are not justified, but there is the issue of efficient investments”.
Does it mean that if you have money you can do whatever you want? «You can do whatever you want if it corresponds to the urban development normative acts».
And as far as the city mayor Yervand Zakharyan is the chief official recommending the construction of buildings, we asked if he has an understanding of architecture. “He is one of the unique mayors who takes part in all the sessions of the urban development council and is aware of all the issued”, concluded Samvel Danielyan.
