Ridgeview Heights Housing Crisis | Trinidad and Tobago News
from Trinidad & Tobago News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Ridgeview Heights is in shambles—structural flaws mean some buildings may be demolished, costing taxpayers nearly $166 million on unfinished units. Minister Phillip Alexander blames former housing minister Camille Robinson-Regis for the botched project, accusing her team of skipping critical geotechnical work like soil surveys and compaction. With apartments originally priced at $600K but contracted at over $1M, cost overruns have ballooned expenses. The Housing Development Corporation is now racing to assess the full financial hit, salvage what they can, and pursue legal action to recover losses—all while grappling with the fallout of inheriting a disaster from the previous administration.
