Tbilisi Development Fund will begin the rehabilitation of a wedding house located on Baratashvili Street, Tbilisi City Hall announced.
Speaking at a Tbilisi government meeting, Mayor Kakha Kaladze said studies conducted on the building found that its load-bearing structures, which were restored in the 1980s, are in an unsatisfactory condition. The facility has been classified as Category III for structural deterioration.
“Which is why we decided to partially dismantle it and restore it in an identical form, in line with international safety standards,” Kaladze said.
The mayor noted that the project aims to preserve the historical appearance of the building and improve safety standards in the historic part of Tbilisi.
“I am glad that another building with the status of a historical heritage monument will be renovated,” he said.
Kaladze added that the rehabilitation works are expected to be completed within 14 months from the date the project is launched.
Tbilisi City Hall did not specify the project’s budget in its announcement.
