[2] Chairman of TBC Bank, Mamuka Khazaradze's Georgian Redevelopment Company is behind the project,[3] while architectural firm Andropogon did the master plan and site design.

[5] As of 2012, the American Academy in Tbilisi (GZAAT) is under construction in Green Lisi Town.

[1] Current plans for the redevelopment of the area date to 2007, when a group led by Mamuka Khazaradze outbid a group of Israeli investors by offering US$182 million for 354 hectares of land.

[6] Conditions of the deal with the government required Khazaradze's group to spend US$30 million on public utilities upgrades in the area and on a system to provide badly needed fresh water to the lake.

Khazaradze's group balked at the conditions of the deal and ended up, under questionable circumstances, purchasing the land directly from the city for US$55 million – a savings of US$127 million from the original bidding against the Israeli group.
