Union Acres Housing Development: Montego Bay, St. James | Part 2
#unionacreshousingdevelopment #wheretoliveinstjames #irwinhousingdevelopment
Welcome to Union Acres Housing Development. This area is located in St. James parish, in the community of Irwin Montego Bay and it is about 9km (15mins) from Fairview Shopping Centre a popular, well-known landmark in the Montego Bay area.
It is located just adjacent the gated community known as Meadows of Irwin which is nestled in the cool hills above the city in a suburb with mountainous backgrounds and is one of the few housing developments with its own Police Station and also a High and Primary School within the vicinity. Said area continues to be a popular area for new home owners or for those seeking retirement homes or investment properties.
This new housing development is being spearheaded by the National Housing Trust (NHT), in association with Jamaica Civil Servants Association (JSCA) and Jamaica Confederation of Trade Unions (JCTU). This project promises to offer 144 detached homes to Public Sector workers, specifically, on completion. They are still in the development phase, but some homes should be made available as soon as June 2024.
The developers of this project are Can-Cara Developments Ltd; the same developers who gave us Meadows of Irwin.

Well, it stated public sector workers, but not particularly to only JCSA members. We can suggest sending in your application early and hopefully you can be one of the new homeowners. All the best!
Good idea to provide affordable housing for public workers

Agreed 100%. Thanks for watching!
What Montego Bay desperately needs is good low priced rental apartments for the city's low wage BPO and tourism workers...one way to rid the city of slum housing....
I swear the Jamaican comment section full of negativity no matter what it is 😂😂.. If a high end complex show comment section full of government need fi build affordable housing for the average Jamaican . When a complex show for the so called average Jamaican it still have negativity …. Wow

So true! Sometimes even when you do exactly what is asked, there's always someone somewhere with an issue. Happy to know there are still folks like yourself who can see and highlight the positives in life. We need more of this kind of mentality and practice in our society. Thanks for watching and do have a great day sir! Cheers.
Maybe there will only be allowed to build upwards. Where is the replacement trees?
Montego Bay is severely starved of Portmore styled housing schemes...

Lol. You know nothing about Mobay. Google "Tara Estate" in Montego bay. Nothing in Portmore can compare. After that, research "22 Freeport", "Spring Farm (Rosehall)". Let me know if you want more.
Those houses aren't affordable. The least you are looking at is $20 million dollars. NHT aim is to keep demand high and supply low. This is an attempt to keep the price of houses high.
Please can you do a drone view of the Estuary housing scheme
Same like union estate in st Catherine made for civil servants

Thank you very much for this. There are many other developments that are also done for special/specific groups.
Would you have any idea of the price granted that they will be handing over 50 units in June 2024? How can persons apply? There is so much hush hush surrounding the price and application date...

Those homes look like matchbooks. So close to neighbors if cough will get a cold. No garage and no land space. No!!

The concept of building houses for one particular group of workers is stupid
@garfieldwhittaker944

So the hotels (like Unico) shouldn't build houses for only their hotel workers????

Why the negativity? The people who they're catering for don't have the money to buy your concept . Imagine if everyone get to dictate their own style,how much you thing it would cost to build one of those house. These are starter home.. the place is mot even finish you don't know if they're allowed to build on to the house.. these types of sub division tend to allow people to build on to it. .its for working class people not for the elites. Imagine they have to draw over 200 different architecture for each. .with this one design it cut down on cost.

All I need to know is how to apply and God be the glory I get one out of 144.
So if all these homes are for civil servants, most of that large area will be empty during the week days Stupid indeed for housings to be built for a specific workings community
80k USD for that?🥲🥲
