£12.6 million social housing project completes
Douglas Borough Council's new £12 million social housing project has opened its doors to new residents.
The 66-apartment complex, on Peel Road, will house people moving from the council's Lord Street flats as well as people on the authority’s waiting list.
The two apartment blocks comprise a mix of one and two bedroom apartments – including a number designed for those with disabilities.
Claire Wells is the council leader:
