The renovation of the Almaly District Akimat building, located on Abylai Khan Avenue, has attracted considerable attention on social media. We would therefore like to provide more detailed information about the work currently underway.

❗️Constructed in 1976, this historic building has never undergone a major renovation. The project, which began in December last year, is primarily aimed at ensuring the building achieves 100% seismic resilience.

🔹Work currently in progress includes comprehensive seismic reinforcement as well as the complete replacement of outdated engineering systems. As part of the structural strengthening, heavy wooden support elements are being replaced with modern lightweight materials.

⚠️Most importantly, the building’s historic façade will be fully preserved and restored without any alterations. Decorative architectural elements that have deteriorated over time are being carefully reconstructed to match their original appearance.

Although the building is not included in the official register of protected historical and cultural monuments, its distinctive architectural character will be fully preserved. Upon completion of the renovation, this nearly 50-year-old landmark will meet modern safety standards while retaining its original architectural identity.
