    YEREVAN, MAY 30, NOYAN TAPAN. "After completion of Northern Avenue
    we'll have the most modern district of Yerevan," Mayor of Yerevan
    Ervand Zakharian stated during the opening ceremony of Northern
    Avenue's first section on May 29.

    In his words, Northern Avenue designed for pedestrain traffic combines
    the best ideas that the great architect Alezander Tamanian had 50
    years ago and the requirements of modern urban development. Northern
    Avenue that occupies a 8-ha area and is 450 meters in length links
    Freedom Square (designed by A.

    Tamanian) with its Opera House with Republic Square where the
    Governmental buildings are located. Parking lots for a thousand cars
    will be built in the underground section of Northern Avenue. There
    will be 25-27 building complexes of residential-business type on
    Northern Avenue. Former chief architect of Yerevan Narek Sargsian
    is the chief architect of the project on construction of Northern
    Avenue. Mayor of Yerevan attached importance to the participation
    of the Armenian-Russian joint venture North Island in construction
    of Northern Avenue. The Russian shareholder of the company is the
    Makarius Group. According to Director General of Makarius Group
    Gitas Anilionis, many apartments and offices of Northern Avenue's
    first section have already been sold. E. Zakharian said that an area
    of about 13 thousand sq.m. in two completed buildings of Northern
    Avenue has been delivered for operation. Construction of the other
    two sections will finish by late 2007. Investments of 200-250 mln
    USD will be made in construction of Northern Avenue.
