ST PHILIP IT IS! The eastern parish is still the fastest growing parish when it comes to residential homes.
Chief Town Planner Mark Cummins said a steady stream of Barbadians have been making the parish their home since the 1970s in spite of several recent large housing projects in the neighbouring Christ Church approved by the Town and Country Development Planning Office.
He pointed out that in Christ Church a development at Staple Groves was recently completed and within the last six months permission was granted for a development of turnkey (contractor-designed) houses at the Ridge, an area just east of Edey Village. That project involved more than 700 houses and there is another project in the vicinity of the Blackman Gollop Primary School expected to have more than 100 housing units when completed.
