Freedom Square in Yerevan will be reconstructed and new architectural solutions will be proposed, as Chef Architect of Yerevan Arthur Meschyan said at the press conference held on 24 January. He noted that the first step of this project is to free the second zone of the square from cafes and to turn it into a green zone.

Speaking about cafe businesses and complaints he outlines, “There is a wrong interpretation that the recovery of the second zone of Opera Square is the project proposed by Mayor, me or a group of people. For many years, there have been complaints and all Yerevan residents would like to recover a part of the Opera area and to make it a green zone.”

Arthur Meschyan stressed out that businesses shouldn’t be blamed for the site development of green areas in Opera Square but the urban authorities having permitted this process should be blamed for that.
