The shortage of land remains a problem in Alexandra. Phase 1 of this pilot project is the development of a two and three storey complexes comprising 48 units, constructed in a high-density configuration around a central open courtyard. Each 34m² unit comprises an open plan living space with a bathroom and kitchen. Beneficiaries will own their units as in any other RDP development, but within a Sectional Title framework. Sectional Title will put the management of, and responsibility for, the complex in the hands of the individual owners, represented on a body corporate.
