PRESIDENT John Dramani Mahama has cut the sod for work to begin on the US$1.3 billion Sentuo Airport Garden City project in Accra.
Christened “Garden Above Accra,” the project comprises about 582 premium apartments, a 600-room hotel and a conference facility with a capacity for 2,500 people.
It will also feature healthcare facilities, a modern shopping mall, landscaped gardens, 503 parking bays within a four-storey apartment building, as well as other commercial and leisure amenities.
