Newly-built Austurhöfn, Reykjavík, luxury apartments near Harpa Concert Hall
A
total of 71 apartments are located in six buildings. To date, ISK 1 billion in
total sales.
Gunnar
Thoroddsen, owner and chief of the board of the Íslenskar fasteignir
consultancy and investment firm, states that residents will be assisted by a
service representative for different tasks.
Additional
services such as travel guide and party planning can then be purchased from ERT
Concierge. In addition, the residents of the Reykjavík Edition Luxury hotel
between the apartment buildings and the Harpa will have the option of receiving
services at a reduced rate.
This
summer, the hotel is scheduled to open. Such services may include hiring a
chef, breakfast in your apartment, cleaning services, etc. Residents can
contact the director of the hotel directly.
When
asked about the target group of hundreds of millions of krónur apartments,
Gunnar answers that the focus is on wealthy Icelandic and foreign buyers.
"It's
clear that many Icelanders can afford such apartments, in view of the tax
returns." The Steve Bremis Realty Group in Boston is marketing abroad.
According
to Gunnar, a food court in Austurhöfn is scheduled to open later this year. It
will offer food of higher quality than other Iceland food courts. Eykt plans to
build an eight-story apartment building with approximately 100 apartments on
the ground. Eykt built a brown apartment block at Bríetartún 9-11, which you
can see in the photos, where 91 of the 94 apartments were already sold. Founded
by Skúli Mogensen in 2011, the low-cost airline grew rapidly and prospered,
before facing financial challenges and bankruptcy by the end of March 2019.
His
aircraft and his flight attendant's uniforms were as strikingly fuchsic as the
torn-down building.
Real
estate prices rise in Reykjavik, and Skólavörðustígur, one of the city's most
covetous streets, cascades down from the church of Hallgrímskirkja.
It's
a beautiful busy street full of shops, bars and cafes and leads straight to the
main shopping street of Laugavegur.
A
gorgeous penthouse on Skólavörðustígur measuring 119 square meters is now on
sale. It is certainly not inexpensive, at ISK 110 million, which means every
square meter is less than one million kronas.
The
apartment overlooks the city and offers a rooftop terrace.
Reportedly, Icelander Blacklisted for
critical article in China!
Vísir reports that an Icelandic lawyer was
blacklisted by the Chinese authorities for a critical article he wrote about
real estate belonging to the Chinese embassy and its management of the
pandemic.
The blacklist means that the author of the
article, Jónas Haraldsson, can not travel to China and may have his assets
frozen in China. This decision was announced on Wednesday to Gunnar Snorri
Gunnarsson, Iceland's Chinese ambassador, and he was called to a meeting at the
ministry of foreign affairs where he received the news.
Guðlaugur — Foreign Affairs Minister of
Iceland Guðlaugur — told reporters that punishing people for exercising their
freedom of expression in countries where freedoms are protected was
inappropriate.
"I believe, politically, that it is
totally unacceptable for an Icelandic citizen just to exercise their freedom of
expression," he said. "It's unacceptable, of course. We made this
clear in Beijing and here in Reykjavík with the Chinese authorities immediately."
Despite this, Guðlaugur ¯s opinion on the
matter is not that Chinese authorities will change.
"I want to emphasize that this is a
person who only exercises his freedom of speech and freedom of speech in
Iceland," he said. "That's how it is and it's going to be like that.
It's not a good feeling of course when we get such a message." In Iceland,
nearly twice as many women work in fields that require education or expertise
as men, reports Fréttablaðið.
In the labor market, this is almost 67% of
women, compared to 39% of men.
This was stated in a new EU Statistical
Institute report by Eurostat. In the continent as a whole, the proportions are
significantly lower, with only Sweden and Norway being higher than in Iceland.
There are more women in different sectors.
17% of women are employed in education when
examined, compared to only 6% of men in the same area.
19% of women work in the areas of health
and social work, while only 5% of men do the same work.
Women are also more numerous in different
sectors such as financing, insurance, property and government, while men are
more numerous in the information, technology and scientific sectors. In
agriculture, fishing, manufacturing and construction, there are also many more
men.
The gender ratio of men and women in the
arts is more or less the same, with fewer than 4% of men and women in this
sector working.
