Yacoubian Building (Beirut)
- For the Cairo, Egypt edifice of the same name, see Yacoubian Building (Cairo)
Yacoubian building, is a prominent commercial and residential edifice in Beirut, Lebanon, hosting some of the best-known commerces in a prominent coastal strip in Beirut. It belonged to the wealthy Armenian Yacoubian family.
The then-chic and now run-down famous Beirut edifice is a metaphor of Beirut's old architectural heritage and is subjet of Spectrice (Yacoubian Building, Beirut) display and work of art[1] commissioned in 2006-2008 and made of non-shrinking grout, aluminium, glass, fabric.
This is not to be confused with an equally important dominant edifice in Cairo, Egypt, called Yacoubian Building belonging to Hagop Yacoubian.
