Hotel to be built near Hanrapetutyun metro station
A hotel will be built in the vicinity of Hanrapetutyun (Republic) metro station, the Yerevan Municipality said in reply to A1+'s inquiry.
In its written response, the municipality did not say who the owner of the hotel is and when it is planned to be finished. The area adjacent to the metro station resembles a construction site.
"Yerevan Municipality's Board of Urban Planning will convene a special sitting to discuss the exterior appearance of the hotel," reads the letter without specifying the date of discussions.
A1+ tried to know our citizens' opinion on the planned construction.
"I believe that it will be a nice architectural building which will not pollute the environment and disturb the routine of the capital," said Senik Vardanyan.
"It does not matter what they build, the most important is that they level the ground and fill the pit" said Hovhannes gevorgyan.
"We can do nothing to halt the construction," said Nikolai Hovhannisyan shrugging his shoulders.
"Yerevan has turned into a concrete city, we do not need new buildings," said Lala Shanoyan.
"Once they have decided, they will realize their plans. They can even build a hotel in lieu of metro," said Yurik Petrosyan.
