The first tenants of a new 112-unit inner city social housing scheme, one of the largest in Cork in recent years, and built on the site of former council flats, are set to get the keys within weeks.

The €35m-€40m Green Lane development will be officially opened by Tánaiste Micheál Martin today on the site of the former Blackpool flats, which were demolished in 1999, with the site laying vacant since.
