Elite Plaza, High-tech business center in Yerevan, Armenia.
Elite Plaza is a high-tech office and retail tower in Yerevan, Armenia, rising about 85 m (280 ft) with a glass and steel facade. The building brings together office floors and commercial spaces within a single structure.
Elite Group built the tower, completing it in January 2013 and opening it on 16 February 2013. The IFC and the EBRD lent $5.4 million and $3.6 million respectively to Elite Group to support the construction, the first high-class multipurpose office building in Yerevan.
The building is also called Khorenatsi 15, after its address on Movses Khorenatsi Street. Its green finish drew criticism in 2016, when journalist Liana Aghajanian called it symbolic of Yerevan losing historical buildings to a flashy contemporary style. It holds office, retail, conference and exhibition space.
The building has separate entrances for the office floors and the retail areas, which makes it easy to head directly to the right section. Underground parking is available, and elevators connect all floors.
The building is also known as Khorenatsi 15, after its address on Movses Khorenatsi Street. At its opening in February 2013 it was described as the largest business centre in the Caucasus, with 21,700 sq m of space. Journalist Liana Aghajanian wrote in 2016 that its green finish and odd shape symbolised Yerevan's rapid architectural change.
