Topping Out Ceremony
A project to build Aberdeen’s first council homes in over 30 years has reached a significant milestone with a topping out ceremony. Representatives from the community joined councillors and officials at the Rorie Hall site in Cults, where Stewart Milne Construction will build 27 new flats as part of the first phase of Aberdeen City Council’s new-build housing programme. The Rorie Hall development consists of one and two bedroom flats with gardens for ground floor residents and balconies on the first and second floors. The development will also include communal and private outdoor space. For the first phase of the new-build programme, including the projects at Hayton Road and Byron Park, Stewart Milne Construction will deliver a total of 85 high quality, sustainable homes. Aberdeen City Council’s Housing and Environment convener councillor Aileen Malone said: “In the current economic climate more and more people are in need of council housing and this has been reflected in an ever growing waiting list. “The development of affordable housing to support independent living throughout life is essential as the city requires to increase its’ workforce in order to respond to the economic opportunities planned for the future as Aberdeen continues to grow” Bill Imlach, managing director of Stewart Milne Construction said: “These new homes are a real boost to the city of Aberdeen and we are delighted to be working on such a landmark project. “We will be incorporating some of the latest sustainable technologies and specifications to ensure energy efficiency and low running costs for the tenants. The current onsite activity is going well and we will continue to work closely with the council to ensure the successful delivery of the first phase of its new-build programme.” Social housing is core to Stewart Milne Construction’s expertise, with over 30 years’ industry experience and several current projects for both local authorities and housing associations across Scotland. The company’s wide ranging portfolio also includes high profile projects in education, student accommodation and commercial developments.
