Description
The Lordelo do Ouro neighbourhood is an extension of the Dr. Nuno Pinheiro Torres neighbourhood, integrated in the (2º phase) of the Improvement Plan launched by the municipality in 1956 to suppress housing needs in the city and operate in the context of the islands. Inaugurated in 1978, it is composed by 179 dwellings distributed by four buildings of four floors, as in the Lagarteiro neighbourhood. Heavily damaged, it was subjected to a careful rehabilitation of its facades, roofs and collective areas, which gave it back its coherence of construction and improved the comfort of the buildings.
