At ground level, several commercial areas are planned, including Coop’s grocery concept Extra, with provisions for larger deliveries. The 71 apartments are distributed across two buildings with four and five floors respectively above the commercial section. In front of the residential buildings, an outdoor area for play and leisure is planned. The developer is Kvassnesvegen Utvikling AS, which is owned 50/50 by Vestbo Eiendomsutvikling AS and Coop Hordaland Eiendom AS.
Preparatory work, including the demolition of existing buildings on the site, has begun. Further work is contingent on sufficient pre-sales.
