The Land Development Agency (LDA) has started construction on the development of 219 affordable and social homes at the former Devoy Barracks in Naas.
Mullingar-based Andrews Construction has been appointed as the contractor for the development with the first homes due to be delivered in 2025.
The A-rated homes are being constructed on a State-owned 4.14-hectare site, located on John Devoy Road to the southwest of Naas Town Centre.
The land was previously part of the former Devoy Barracks complex and the site was made available to the LDA by The Housing Agency.
Planning permission for the Strategic Housing Development was approved by An Bord Pleanála in October 2022.
The housing includes 42 two-storey, three-bed houses, 177 apartments and duplexes consisting of 64 one-bed, 105 two-bed and eight three-bed units.
The development will also include a total of 4,684 sq m of communal open space, 314 car parking spaces and 482 bicycle parking spaces.
