Anti-ecological and anti-hygienic
Members of the "We are the owners of this city" civil initiative are conducting an online survey on Facebook on "The List of Anti-Ecological Buildings in Yerevan".
The survey was conducted with 700 participants. Based on initial results, Northern Avenue was rated as the most anti-ecological in Yerevan, followed by the enormous concrete building at the Student Park that disturbs citizens at the park, the National Library and the observatory, as well as the huge complex under construction at Ring Park near Tumanyan Street. The construction of the building harms the green zone of the Ring Park and doesn't allow citizens to rest and move around.
The list of disputed structures goes on with the villas built at the price of the forest near Victory Park, the stores built in the green sector on Abovyan Street, the Nushikyans building located on Teryan Street, the Yerevan City supermarket built after the elimination of the alley on Komitas Street, as well as the high-story building that is being built in the patio of buildings on 42 Koghbatsi Street and 40 Pushkin Street.
Out of the surveyed, 110 said the construction going on in central Yerevan is anti-ecological, and 34 said the construction at Ring Park is anti-ecological.
Most of the survey participants rated the RA Ministry of Nature Protection, "all old high-story buildings with horrible smells", Yerevan Municipality and others as anti-ecological.
