The Obour City Development Authority is constructing 89 buildings in Obour City that include 2,111 units, said head of the authority Amin Ghoneim, noting that the authority has identified the finishing standards and reviewed them in one building of the project.
He said 63 buildings were approved for repainting, and work has begun on one of them as a sample model.
Minister of Housing Mostafa Madbouly had toured Obour City and checked medium-income housing units implemented through the Dar Misr project.
He alluded to the need for attention to maintenance work in these districts, and to irrigate crops using turbid, or treated water.
The minister also reviewed facility buildings that have been completed in the city. Ghoniem noted that seven new schools will be established in the city and that there are an additional five schools proposed, as well as several playgrounds in different districts of the city.
