This is great news, I wish they did this sooner

Construction in Shoushi Grows


YEREVAN (RFE/RL)—Construction in Shoushi has begun for a number of state agencies of the unrecognized Armenian republic to move there. The area’s administration says construction could be completed by 2011.

Rehabilitation of the town has been a declared priority by authorities in Nagorno-Karabakh. Reconstruction activities in Shoushi have been largely supported by Armenian charities.

According to head of the Shoushi administrative area Gevorg Hayrian, another major project aims at providing the town with 24-hour water supply.

Hayrian told RFE/RL that the project has already been submitted to the Armenian Fund for funding. The Fund had declared it would channel all funds raised in last year’s nationwide telethon at projects in Shoushi.

Hayrian also said an allocation equivalent to nearly $185,000 had been made by the Karabakh authorities from their state budget for projects to be implemented in the Shoushi area.

The area’s head said that several streets as well as a sports school are being currently repaired in the town and a picture gallery is under construction.

“Shoushi is in a very bad condition. It needs revitalizing,” said Hayrian.

Not Artsakh specifically, but for Armenia I do. It's called CYMA.

Shushi, NKR – Signs of Recovery Finally on the Horizon

Construction is bustling in Shushi today. Everywhere you look repair work is underway and new buildings are going up. This activity is the result of the NKR government’s decision to transfer several state ministries and departments here.

Most of the work is now being financed by the government but the upcoming marathon of the All Armenia Fund in November will be devoted to rebirth of Shushi. In all likelihood the Fund will launch work projects here come 2010.

Grigor Avanesyan, who heads the Shushi Regional District’s Division of Construction and Architecture, stated that the government had earmarked 70 million AMD for various work projects in Shushi.

Repairs to the city’s water system are underway and the government has earmarked 10 million AMD for the necessary repairs to be made.

Improvements to the Tadevos and Azatamartikner Streets in Shushi have begun and the 12 kilometer stretch of road to Kirsavan is in full swing. Local rural streets will also be repaired.

Mr. Avanesyan stated that essential repairs to the Shushi administrative center have begun and construction of the NKR Supreme Court, in the vicinity of Aram Manukyan Street, is underway.

He added that later on repair work will begin on the building housing the former People’s University, which has been chosen as the new home of the Ministry of Culture and Youth Affairs.

Construction work also continues apace on the new building that will house the Shushi Picture Gallery. The gallery is set to open in 2011.
