Dominica has officially handed over the keys to 16 brand new apartment units in Eggleston on Thursday, Sept 25, 2025. This brought relief and joy to the deserving families of Roseau South.
With this, the Government of Dominica has marked a significant milestone in its national housing initiative.
Reportedly, the handover of these new apartments reflects the commitment of the Government to rebuild the stronger and better communities. The leaders earmarked that after the devastation of Hurricane Maria caused in 2017, there was an urgent need for safe and durable housing that became one of the top priorities of the nation.
As many families were displaced and some of the entire communities were left vulnerable, so there was a great need to rebuild stronger.
Through this, Housing Revolution Programme, the Government of Dominica has been consistently demonstrating its dedication towards addressing these housing challenges.
Also, the authorities continue to transform communities and provide resilient housing solutions. This initiative ensures that every Dominican has access to a safe home that can withstand natural disasters, while uplifting the standard of living across the communities.
As per the sources, each new set of keys handed over is a home and a promise of security, dignity and a brighter future for families living in Dominica. The 16 new apartment units in Eggleston are a testament of resilience nation vision of the Government.
Each apartment is designed with modern standards of safety and comfort, which will ensure that the families are not only having a place to live but also the peace of mind that their homes are built to endure future climatic events.
The Eggleston apartment handover is a part of the wider Housing Revolution Programmes that continues to transform communities across Dominica. The Government itself stated that it is a bold step towards realising the vision of building stronger and more resilient Dominica, together.
