According to Lao Dong reporters, with about 6,000 residents, Nghia Tan apartment complex (Cau Giay district) has recently been expanding its tiger cages, causing serious degradation.
Mr. Nguyen Van Bac (name requested to be changed, living in Nghia Tan apartment complex, Cau Giay district) shared that Nghia Tan apartment complex consists of 23 apartment buildings, built and put into use since 1987.
After nearly 40 years of use, the current state of this apartment complex has seriously degraded. To increase the usable area, many households here have tried every means to expand "tiger cages", bird cages", which are unsafe for fire and explosion...
Similarly, many residents of Nghia Tan apartment building said that they are looking forward to the apartment building being quickly renovated and hope that the authorities will study and calculate the compensation coefficient (K coefficient) to suit the wishes of the people.
The Hanoi People's Committee has recently issued a decision approving the detailed planning task for the renovation and reconstruction of Nghia Tan residential area, at a scale of 1/500. Accordingly, the total area studied for the detailed planning task is approximately 316,611m2.
The time to complete the detailed planning project is 6 months from the date of approval of the planning task. Thus, it is expected that by June 2025, the city will complete the detailed planning project for the renovation and reconstruction of Nghia Tan residential area.
Regarding this issue, the Hanoi Department of Planning and Architecture previously said that the unit had approved the detailed planning estimate for the renovation and reconstruction of Nghia Tan apartment complex.
In addition, in this phase 1 there are also apartment buildings: Giang Vo, Thanh Cong, Ngoc Khanh (Ba Dinh district), Trung Tu, Kim Lien, Khuong Thuong (Dong Da district), Thanh Xuan Bac, Thanh Xuan Nam (Thanh Xuan district)...
Many real estate experts believe that the biggest problem when renovating old apartment buildings and collective houses is the lack of legal basis, the current planning consulting force is still small, and some consulting units have limited qualifications so they cannot meet the requirements.
The procedure for adjusting the planning of old apartment buildings includes collecting public opinions. However, public opinions often lack consensus because the compensation price framework as well as resettlement policies are still unclear.
Architect Dao Ngoc Nghiem - Vice President of the Vietnam Urban Planning and Development Association - commented that since 1999, Hanoi has set out the task of renovating old apartment buildings, with the goal of gradually eliminating old apartment buildings.
However, according to a report by the Hanoi Department of Construction, the renovation and reconstruction of old apartment buildings by the end of 2023 only reached 1.14% of the plan with 19 areas being renovated and constructed.
