Conack Construction has signed a contract to deliver 65 homes in Togher, Cork, as part of a €16 million social housing scheme.
The scheme includes 32 three-bed houses; 24 two-bed houses; four two-bed maisonettes; three two-bed apartments; two four-bed houses; and a community building.
The project is expected to be completed by the end of next year.
The former Deanrock flats were demolished on the site more than a decade ago. Controversy surrounded the sale of the land before a compromise deal was eventually agreed in 2016. Site clearance work began over a year ago.
The new Deanrock properties are designed by the council's Architects Department and will have an A-energy rating, with top quality insulation, air tightness, and photovoltaic panels to reduce heating and electricity bills for tenants. Stoves will also be installed as a back-up heating system.
