‘6060 Miles to Yerevan’ Street Sign Erected in Chicago’s Center․
Connors Park on North Wabbas Avenue of Chicago, IL, continues to be Armenified. Under the auspices of the Armenian honorary consulate in Chicago, on the initiative of the Business-Armenia group and with the support of our local community last year, new benches inscribed with “Chicago-Yerevan” were placed in the square. The benches were made in Armenia and look similar to the ones that had been placed in various cities and towns of Armenia and Artsakh.Recently another initiative was realized. Signs showing the directions and mileage to London, Paris, Rome, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and…Yerevan (6060 miles) have been placed here. Oscar Tatosian, the honorary consul of Armenia to Chicago, stated at the opening ceremony that this is the continuation of the project that began with the beautiful benches with the aim “to promote Armenia, to promote Yerevan, to promote tourism and trade with Armenia.”“This sign will show us that the world is very small and we encourage people to travel to Armenia,” Tatosian said. |
