FOCUS GROUP, which won the public tender promoted by the municipality and advised by the Order of Architects – Southern Section, has already delivered the execution project to the municipality, and work should begin in 2024, according to the statement sent to the press.

“The housing crisis facing the country is the result of a lack of supply. There has been a brutal disinvestment in building new housing. That’s why it’s imperative to increase public supply and create incentives for the private sector to build in the most necessary and needy segments,” comments Nuno Malheiro da Silva, manager of FOCUS GROUP.

He believes that “the Loures council’s project not only seeks to respond to the lack of public housing in the municipality, but also to urbanize a territory that has not always grown in a planned way”.
