Description
Description
Martin Luther King I is a RE-URBAN project that consists in financing the company PLA S.r.l. for the urbanisation of a plot of land and the subsequent construction of a building complex of approximately 3,000 square metres (SLP) in Potenza.
The transaction, which will take place over a period of 3 years, includes the following phases:
* the purchase of the land (currently being formalised)
* the construction of the complex, subdivided as follows:
- 1 basement floor with 32 car boxes and 18 cellars
- 1 ground floor with 2 commercial premises
- 6 floors housing a total of 24 flats
* the sale of the commercial and residential units.
These phases will be supported by 5 collection campaigns on RE-Lender.
The land on which the property will be built is located in the residential district of Macchia Romana, where the entrepreneur Francesco Marella, who heads PLA S.r.l., has already built a complex that is currently being delivered. The operation was the first in Italy to be financed also through lending crowdfunding, a tool that accompanied the entrepreneur through to the marketing of the units.
Located in the north of the city of Potenza and just a few minutes' drive from the centre, the Macchia Romana district has undergone major urban and property redevelopment in recent years. The area is almost saturated, while demand remains strong due to its proximity to important service facilities such as the University of Basilicata and the San Carlo Hospital.
In addition, the complex will be located near the Macchia Romana railway station, a strategic hub for the city, and the Elisa Claps park, a green lung that rises above the former Macchia Romana forest and offers a hiking trail, a belvedere area, a picnic area with tables, a barbecue and a playground.
The entrepreneur, one of the first in Italy to use crowdfunding, has carried out other successful campaigns including: Moena, Paestum, Logistic Center, Scalo Ionico, PLA prefabs and Rione Lucania.
