Andreas Pachaturidis presented the major infrastructure projects being implemented in Peristeri, focusing on the upcoming opening of the state-of-the-art Great Arts Hall and the expansion of the network of daycare centers.

The Mayor of the city, Andreas Pachaturidis, referred to the development trajectory and the emblematic projects that radically change the image of Peristeri, outlining his vision for the upgrading of the cultural and social fabric of the area. Mr. Pachaturidis appeared particularly satisfied with the progress of the works, stressing that the city is being transformed into a modern pole of attraction. “There are many great projects going on here in Peristeri,” he noted.

The mayor set as a top milestone for the coming period the completion and delivery to the citizens of the new large cultural centre, which is being built at the site of the historic “Woodworking”. Specifying the exact date of the ceremony, he even proudly stated, “On Dec. 17, we are inaugurating an arts palace, including 2 theaters, chamber music venues, a huge gallery, two underground parking lots.” This is a high standard infrastructure that is expected to become a benchmark for the whole of Attica.

Alongside the cultural infrastructure, Andreas Pachaturidis placed particular emphasis on strengthening the social structures of the municipality, focusing on meeting the needs of young families and working parents. He announced the expansion of the pre-school education network, noting that the
planning is already in the implementation phase. “We have now started the construction of 3 nursery schools,” he said, stressing the importance of responding directly to the needs of the local community.

Concluding his statement, the mayor of Peristeri pledged to fully and definitively solve the problem of accommodating preschool children, setting a clear timetable for achieving the goal. “We have 16 and 3 now that we are building, all the children in 2 years when they are finished, we will take them without any child left out,” concluded Pachaturidis.
