Ramps Logistics Guyana gearing to build US$5M apartment complex for oil industry
Kaieteur News – Ramps Logistics Guyana, a leading supply chain management company in the Caribbean and Latin America, is gearing to establish a luxurious apartment complex on a parcel of land at Lots 37 & 39 Area F Turkeyen. The property is located just off the Railway Embankment Road, north of the Arthur Chung Conference Centre (ACCC) and the Giftland Mall.
Shaun Rampersad – Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ramps Logistics Guyana Inc.
According to project documents which are being reviewed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the area in the immediate surroundings of the lots is a mix of residential and commercial buildings.
Ramps said the apartment complex is expected to receive all utility connections (GWI and GPL) from the access street east of the property, Third Street. The developer will also construct concrete drains within the property to ensure adequate drainage of the complex.
Kaieteur News understands that the project was envisioned and sponsored by Ramps Logistics Guyana to respond to the growing needs in the emerging oil sector in Guyana, specifically the increasing demand for high quality accommodations for expatriates and young Guyanese professionals currently working and living in Georgetown.
Additionally, Ramps said the name Sky House Guyana was inspired by the rooftop amenities provided by the complex and views of the ocean. It also explained that the architecture of the building was done with a lot of emphasis to ensure it exemplified luxury given the nearby amenities and excellent location.
Ramps also said the developmental budget for the project is US$5M and is financed through a private bank loan.
The newspaper understands that the building sits on a plot of land with dimensions 122ft x 99ft (0.28 acre), while the building dimensions are 86ft x 78ft (6,785 sq.ft for each floor).
It was further explained that the apartment building will have 16 self‐contained apartments, four on each floor and 25 car parking spaces on the ground floor. There will also be a gym, pool, and green space on the roof top.
Ramps said each two-bedroom apartment will be approximately 1200 sq. ft. and each three-bedroom apartment will be 1800 sq. ft.
With respect to the preliminary design for the apartment complex, Ramps said the feasibility of several building types and construction materials were investigated. However, the final decision was made on a five-storey concrete and steel structure comprising of 16 self‐contained apartments.
The architect and structural and services engineer for the project are ACLA Architecture, KS&P and ENCO. They have all prepared the design drawings for the project. An important step in this process was also to acquire all the relevant construction permits from the City Engineers, EPA and Ministry of Housing. The duration of this phase was approximately 12 months.
Ramps anticipates that once completed, the apartment could be fully occupied at any one time by residents with all onsite parking provided for within the compound. The design life for the project is 30 years.
