STATUE PLAN STILL UNKNOWN

Social


The plan for the statue dedicated to national hero Karen Demirchyan to be installed near the Main and Mashtots avenues, remains unknown.

In mid-June 2008, the Yerevan city council declared a contest for the best plan proposals, but the results are still unclear.

The architecture department of the Yerevan city council told “A1+” that there are four plans and they will soon announce the name of the winner. A special commission for evaluating and summarizing the results was created and the commission will announce the results after the final session.

Let us recall that the Yerevan city council was assigned to name one of the streets of Yerevan after Karen Demirchyan and install a statue with the decree issued by the RA President in 1999. The street was named after Demirchyan, but there is no statue to date.

The first, second and third place winners will receive 1,000 dollars, 500 dollars and 300 dollars respectively.
