The Ilubirin Foreshore Housing Estate is awkwardly sandwiched between the Thirdmainland Bridge's Ringroad, The Atlantic Ocean and Ikoyi. The housing project is part of the Lagos HOMS program (Home Ownership Mortgage Scheme). This is within the vision of Lagos State to create more affordable housing for its residents. This particular project features 2 - 3 bedroom apartments contained within 8 floor tower blocks.
As seen in the pictures below, the state of construction varies within the large site. Ultimately 1, 254 flats are scheduled to be constructed. Some of the tower blocks are already at full height, while some are still at the piling stage.
Here is a breakdown of the construction work that we have observed
Other works expected to be delivered are the IPP, which is situated near the Thirdmainland Bridge on ramp, the shopping centre which is situated near the canal, and the Sewage Treatment Plant at the Northernmost part of the estate. As we mentioned in our previous blog entry, the project is being built by Cyrou Turnkey builders.
