Lisbon Is Starting the Rehabilitation of Three Municipal Neighborhoods

Written By Manuel Poças

Due to the Rehabilitation Program – Living Better (Programa Viver Melhor), three of Lisbon’s municipal neighborhoods will undergo rehabilitation works. This is expected to impact 100 residents directly.

The program, which is a partnership between Lisbon’s City Hall and Gebalis (a company focused on local development that aims to promote and manage municipal housing properties) will invest a total of 4.7 million euros in the rehabilitation of the neighborhoods of Avenida de Berlim, Quinta dos Ourives, and Boavista.

According to public data, the works will include the following:

  • The neighborhood of Avenida de Berlim, located in Olaias, in the northern part of Lisbon, will have six lots rehabilitated, which correspond to 84 fractions, and the works are supposed to end in the first trimester of 2025;
  • In the neighborhood of Bairro dos Ourives, located in Beato, the eastern part of the city, five lots, corresponding to 104 houses, are also projected to be done within the first trimester of 2025;
  • Finally, regarding the neighborhood of Boavista, located in Benfica, next to Monsanto Forest Park, the works will be on 14 lots, corresponding to 168 houses, and are due in the second trimester of 2025.

The beginning of these three projects further solidifies Gebalis’s commitment to the municipality, which has a focus on improving housing conditions and the overall quality of life.

Note that the Living Better program is considered one of the largest investments ever made in municipal housing, and it aims to rehabilitate a total of 478 buildings, impacting 8614 fractions, which correspond to 1545 houses. These three projects are only the beginning. The next works, which shall start during the summer, will target six other municipal neighborhoods.
