The project is expected to cost 500 million Kenyan shillings and will be implemented in two phases, the first of which is the remodeling and upgrade of offices and residential units at a cost of 300 million Kenyan shillings. The second phase is the construction of new housing units at a cost of 200 million Kenyan shillings. As of 2019, the project is still ongoing.
