NCC Limited has received SEK 340 million contract from HSB to build 158 apartments in Uppsala city center, which will form the Brf Hamnen tenant-owner association. NCC will initiate production of the new property block - containing 158 new tenant-owner apartments and seven retail and service premises - in January. The centrally located industrial area, which is distinguished by its old industrial structures, is being transformed and making way for new, centrally located residential housing next to the Fyris river.

The apartments will be built to a high standard and all will have a view over the river. The strong environmental profile will be boosted by the building's Silver environmental rating from the Sweden Green Building Council. The classification takes into consideration such environmental factors as energy use, energy sources, indoor environment, materials and chemicals.

The first apartment owners are scheduled to move in during the second quarter of 2018. The order will be registered in the NCC Construction Sweden business area in the fourth quarter of 2015.
