MANSION OF FADEY TADEVOSYAN
Early 20th century
State index: 1.6.206.6
Architect: Ioanisyan
The house is located at the corner of Arami and Teryan streets at 44 Arami Street.
According to the real estate valuation report of 1896, it belonged to Grigor Ter-Nikogosyan, a resident of Tiflis. It was one-story, built of tuff. The roof was covered with sheet metal. The floor and balcony were wooden, the ceiling was plastered with gypsum.
In November 1901, Ter-Nikogosyan sold the house to
Fadey Tadevosyan, who later (1910-1911) built the second floor. In August 1923,
the building was nationalized and transferred to the newly established
conservatory, which functioned here until the late 1930s. In the 1930s, a third
floor was built. Subsequently, until 1964, the building housed the
correspondence pedagogical institute (later - Institute of Philosophy and Law).
The house has an Г-shaped plan (23.6 x 18.9 m).
In the main building, the rooms are arranged along two axes directed to the
southwest (Arami Street). In the side wing, the rooms are also in two rows and
communicate with the main building through an internal corridor. In the
volumetric-spatial composition, two street facades stand out, at the
intersection of which a semicircular tower is accentuated. The latter is topped
with a dome decorated with scale-like sculptures.
The balconies have metal, mesh-like, fine railings.
Inside the building, wall stoves lined with colored
tiles have been preserved. There are built-in mirrored cabinets.
The building has undergone significant changes. Due to
the construction of the third floor, the tower adorning the building was moved
up along the axis. The wooden doors with high reliefs were replaced with iron
ones. Internal partitions damaged the wall stoves.
The building is valuable as an architectural monument.
Its historical significance lies in the fact that in the 1920s-1930s, the
conservatory was located here.
