Veidekke ASA: To build the third stage for Thon in Lørenskog
Veidekke Entreprenør has been awarded the contract to build the residential project Dr. Wendts hage close to Triaden Lørenskog Storsenter. The 51 apartments are the third residential project Veidekke is building for Thongård AS in the area. This will be a turnkey contract valued at NOK 97.5 million, excluding VAT.
"The 51 apartments are in two seven storey buildings on top of a common parking basement and commercial space. There will be lifts directly to the apartments, and these range in size from 45 m2 and one bedroom to spacious 3 bedroom apartments 135 m2 in size with a 50 m2 roof terrace. The sale of the flats is well under way, and building is expected to start in Q1 2016," says head of department Odd Arne Lian of Veidekke.
The project is a part of Skårer Vest subsection 7, which is a major development with lawns, plants, paths, playgrounds and parks. The project is centrally located in Lørenskog, 15 minutes from downtown Oslo and less than 10 minutes from Lillestrøm. When the Dr. Wendts hage project is finished, Veidekke will have built eight buildings with 286 apartments under three contracts for Thongård AS, at an overall value of half a billion kroner, since the summer of 2012.
The two buildings will have pile foundations directly on bedrock. There has been particular emphasis on using high quality contemporary materials both inside and outside. The buildings will be built in prefabricated concrete and steel with façades of brick, wood and glass/windows.
