Zarya Vostoka building

The Zarya Vostoka building, located on Rustaveli Avenue in Tbilisi, Georgia, is a notable example of constructivist architecture designed by Armenian architect David Chisliev in 1931. Originally serving as the headquarters for the Russian-language newspaper Zarya Vostoka, the building has a rich history, having previously been the site of a wooden circus until 1913. It later became home to the publishing house Merani and was recognized as a protected national monument until 2007. Currently undergoing renovations, the building's historical integrity is a topic of debate among critics, making it a point of interest for both tourists and researchers exploring Tbilisi's architectural heritage.
