Construction of new homes at two sites in Belfast is officially underway - and set to be completed by 2024.
The new developments, in Bloomfield in the east of the city and Ross Street in the west, are said to be playing a significant role in regeneration of both areas, as well as addressing housing need.
The new development in Bloomfield will see the construction of 16 new apartments "built to the highest energy efficiency", in a £3million investment, again supported by the Department for Communities, with a contribution of £1.3million by Radius Housing. The project is being developed by JT Development, and the new homes should be completed by early autumn 2024.
"I’m really pleased to see that these beautiful new homes are being constructed with sustainability and urban regeneration in mind. We want to see local communities flourish by creating well-connected, green and sustainable environments for our citizens, and it’s fantastic to see these two developments get underway."
