Powerful Development with Green Thinking
Reykjavík is growing faster than ever when looking at the number of new apartments—and during this growth phase Reykjavik is growing inward. The densification achieves the City's environmental targets climate goals. Our focus is on quality districts and social mixing across the City so we may have a stronger community for the future. These objectives are part of the Green Plan.
The development of housing is in the interest of all groups of society, for the general market, affordable housing for young adults and first buyers, building cooperatives, students, the labor unions, and senior citizens. Particular emphasis is placed on ensuring a safe roof overhead for people with lower incomes at an affordable price.
