Mánatún Street in the making
Construction of the multi-family dwelling in Mánatún Street is progressing apace. The casting of Mánatún Street 3 and 5 is well underway and is expected to be completed in late March. The Company has begun placing the exterior siding and finishing the windows. Installation of wiring and plumbing is also in progress. The construction plans for the area include over 200 apartments in four multiple-family homes with 11 stairwells. In Mánatún Street 3 and 5, which are attached apartment buildings of 6 and 9 floors respectively, there will be a total of 55 flats. When these buildings are complete, construction will begin on Mánatún Street 7-17 and Sóltún Street 1-3. Finally, Mánatún Street 1 will be built, thus completing the construction of the community on the old “Bílanaust” plot.
The buildings at Mánatún Street 3 and 5 are elegant and bright, located just a short distance from the city centre. The finishing of the buildings and surrounding lots is exceptionally careful and well crafted, and the approach is attractive and inviting. The framework surrounding the tree plantings gives the buildings a dignified air, and the elevated sidewalk leading from the spacious parking area creates a comfortable piazza in the shelter of the buildings.
Sale of the apartments in Mánatún Street 3 and 5 has just begun, and there is keen interest in the flats. Since 1997, IPC has built some 300 flats in the neighbourhood, thus making a great contribution toward the development of a flourishing community in the area.
