    RESIDENTS PETITION POLITICAL PARTIES TO HALT BUILDING CONSTRUCTION

    A number of residents living in downtown Yerevan have sent an open
    letter to several political parties in Armenia, asking for their
    assistance in halting construction of a high-rise building in their
    backyard.

    The site, on Nalbandian Street, once housed a kindergarten that was
    demolished last year. A construction company has taken over the site
    and plans to build a luxury residential building.

    Neighborhood residents claim that the construction is illegal ad that
    a planned for underground garage will weaken the seismic strength of
    apartment buildings dating back to the 1950s and 1960s that circle
    the area.

    Residents say that MP's belonging to the Heritage Party and ARF have
    raised the issue within the government, but no steps have been taken
    to halt construction.

    Their letter has been sent to the Free Democrats Party, Prosperous
    Armenia, Armenian National Congress, Heritage Party, ARF and Rule
    of Law.
