We promote El Rusc, a cooperative housing project in a disused building and until now owned by a financial institution that we recovered to offer access to decent and affordable housing in the locality from a collective management, with a public and non-speculative vocation.
It is a newly renovated building, located near the center of Manresa on an important commercial axis, the Carretera de Cardona, and which consists of 12 cooperative homes between 30 and 35 m2 in a right of use regime, a model of access to housing as an alternative to buying and renting.
This project has the collaboration of Manresa City Council, with whom the cooperative has signed an agreement. The City Council has also made a financial contribution to the project, which contributes to its affordability.
HOW ARE THE HOUSING?
The Hive is located in the Cardona road number 54 (Manresa) and consists of a ground floor, 4 floors and an attic. The building began with the construction of a ground floor in 1880, and later the rest of the floors were added, with different changes of owners.
There are one-room homes, and others with a single space, without rooms. Some of them have a porch or terrace. In addition, one of the homes has been designated as a complementary common space, for the use of all the people in the project. You can consult the plans, typology and all the characteristics of each home at information file of the project.
As the flats are small, one of the homes in the building has been designated for collective use by all the neighbors. It is 30 m² inside and an outdoor terrace of almost 50 m².
Recover disused assets to guarantee the right to housing
With the aim of guaranteeing the right to decent housing for the most vulnerable groups that the real estate market leaves out, the homes are preferably intended for young people under 30 and people over 65. Also 1 of the homes addresses the Emergency Desk and is assigned by the Housing Agency of Catalonia.
DO YOU WANT TO LIVE IN THE HIVE?
The Hive is currently full and has no vacancies. If the project is canceled at any time, all members of the cooperative will be notified. We remind you that the main criterion when transferring the right to assign the use of a home is theseniority order a Sostre Cívic, as contained in article 14 of our statutes.
