Stockholmshem has awarded a contract to NCC to build 91 rental apartments in Västertorp, in south Stockholm.
The turnkey contract in partnering form carries a value of approximately $18.9m (SEK180m).
Fotsacken is part of the Stockholm city’s largest development project, which has the goal of building thousands of new rental units.
NCC and Stockholmshem have begun cooperation for the construction of 91 new rental units under the Fotsacken 1 project.
As part of the contract, NCC’s assignment involves construction of the rental apartments, which will be distributed across four buildings with a combination of four to five stories.
The apartments will range from one-bedroom to four-bedroom units, with most of them being one-bedroom or two-bedroom.

By GlobalDataTo cut down production costs, there would be no basement storage rooms or laundry rooms, which will instead be included in each apartment.
NCC Building Sweden department head Annika Grönberg said: “Stockholm is growing and we are pleased to have been entrusted with part of the production of more rental apartments and residential units for the city. We have a long history of cooperation with Stockholmshem and are looking forward to yet another project.”
The buildings are being constructed targeting the Sweden Green Building Council, Silver level. Many of the buildings will feature green roofs or solar cells on the roof.
Stockholmshusen is a partnership project between public housing companies, private entrepreneurs and the Technical Services Department of the City of Stockholm, with the aim of accelerating the pace of construction and meeting the demand for more rental units in Stockholm.
Construction is expected to commence in the spring of 2022 and to be completed in the spring of 2024.
The order will be recorded by NCC during the first quarter of 2022 under its Building business area.
