Don't know the exact date but during the fifties probably. It is still part of a department of the Engineering University of Yerevan.aster wrote:Interesting! How old is this building I wonder?
Have you ever used it for observations Dr. Harout? Does the university allow visitors to come and observe on special occasions like eclipses of spacial/universal bodies?
As for the photo quality; nice contrasty blue sky and sharp details...
Thanks
