New residential project in Puntigam: 20 community apartments are being built in Adlergasse
In the coming week there will be significant changes on a property on Adlergasse in Graz-Puntigam. Instead of the two residential buildings currently standing there that are in need of renovation, a new residential building will soon be built. The innovative project envisages the construction of a modern residential building with 20 community apartments, which is intended to represent a significant improvement to the residential situation in this area.
The mayor and housing councilor Elke Kahr (KPÖ) announced details of this project on Thursday. One of the main motivations behind this construction is to create housing for citizens who are looking for affordable housing. Construction is expected to begin in early 2025 after the old cottages are dismantled.
The project in detail
Demolition work on the existing buildings will begin next week. This is the first step in making space for the new home, which will offer many modern amenities. The selection of the companies involved was also carefully made to ensure the highest quality and efficiency during construction.
The mayor explained the need for such housing projects, especially given the growing need for affordable housing. “Our goal is to bring a better quality of life to our city, and that includes creating new living space,” she said during the presentation. As reported, This is a joint project between Wohnen Graz and the city of Graz, which involves everyone involved in order to provide residents with an attractive living environment.
The planned building will not only contain apartments, but also open spaces that will serve as retreats for future residents. In addition, environmentally friendly construction practices are planned, which even enable a sustainable energy supply.
The investment in new municipal housing shows the city of Graz's commitment to finding solutions to the housing crisis and at the same time improving the quality of life of its citizens. It will be exciting to see how this project will develop and what impact it will have on the neighborhood. Further details about the progress are expected in the local press.
