    Yerevan chief architect Samvel Danielyan expressed his emotions today
    in regard to construction in Yerevan.

    "This is a very interesting time period which is full of clashes of
    mentality. In future we may not face such a massive construction,"
    he said.

    On behalf of Mkrtich MINASYAN, Chairman of Architects' Union and Gurgen
    MUSHEGHYAN, Yerevan Design Institute Head, Samvel Danielyan stated that
    they are not satisfied with the architectural outlook of the buildings.

    Minasyan admitted that one of their failures is that they sanctioned
    construction at public places. "This is a negative thing for our city
    which lacks green areas," he said. "If we were more experienced at
    that time we would allocate land for green areas and today instead
    of numerous cafes we would have green zones.

    However, would the public understand us at that time," he adds.

    The Head of Architects' Union referred to Zangu gorge as an example of
    a green zone which is not looked after property. According to him, it
    could be a very nice place for Yerevan residents to spend their time.

    "Those who come to the gorge may notice that nothing is left from
    the river Zangu here. We have a very nice gift from nature which we
    destroy with our own hands," he said.

    The Head of Architects' Union expressed his dissatisfaction with
    the fact that nothing is left from one time Tamanyan architectural
    Yerevan. Gurgen Musheghyan also joined him in his discontent.
