Core Zone

A former trading spine where frontage, loading, upper-floor access and weekday activity deserve close attention.
Core Zone
Armenian & Acheh Streets
A heavily visited cultural quarter where daytime footfall, neighbours, servicing and visitor pressure all shape the building.

Chulia Street & Love Lane
A long, changing corridor where evening activity, accommodation uses, traffic and building condition vary block by block.

Two distinct streets with intact façades, mixed daily uses and a quieter decision around privacy, access and restoration depth.
