Egypt’s Samcrete Engineers & Contractors (SMCS) has announced that it has completed the design work for the Pyramids Heights Residences project over a 600,000-sq-m area in west Cairo.

The Pyramids Heights project includes 600 housing units at 140 m above sea level, with investments worth 1.2 billion Egyptian pounds ($135.2 million) and expected revenues of 2 billion Egyptian pounds, reported Amwal Alghad.

It is an integrated project which consists of two parts - a business complex and residential.

The company is in talks with a number of distinct partners and international consultants in real estate and urban development to implement this project, he added.
