Central Park Housing Scheme Lahore

One of my friend related to property business told me that Central Park Housing Scheme launched in nearly 2003 and after 6 years we don’t see anyone living over there. And they still look active, how come this happen.

Well if we look at the background of Urban Developers, whose project is this, we’ll note that they haven’t finished any of their project the way they wanted. They first started a housing scheme with the name of Air Avenue Housing Scheme in front of Allama Iqbal International Airport (Lahore Airport) but due to its prime location D.H.A. (Defense Housing Authority) came in and acquire that whole housing scheme and name it Phase-VII. Now it is under DHA management. Then they started I.T. Tower with such a hype, and no doubt it is also at one of the prime location of Lahore. It is at the backside of famous I.T. hub of Lahore, yes I’m talking about Al-Hafeez Center. I.T. Tower is planned to construct behind that road in corner but for many time, they didn’t started work, they might have some legal issues to solve first. That building was considered to be a new place for I.T. However it is started now and they are constructing the structure at the moment. We wish they would complete it. Then they have Air Avenue Luxury Apartments in DHA Phase-VII and farm houses on Bedian Road which are not completed too.

Central Park Housing Scheme:

Central Park Housing Scheme is situated on Ferozpur Road, 22 km from Qalma Chowk. I’m going to discuss my personal opinion and present condition of that scheme. If you are looking for plots, their availability or price then click on above link.

Well in these few years they have continuously updated their housing scheme but not in a speed it should be. They have only developed 1/3rd part of their housing society yet. This 33% developed area is from 12500 kanals they have at the moment. However they write their place as 20,000 kanals on their catalogs, which is denied by their own official.

Infrastructure:

Road is only 1/3rd part of the housing scheme but its construction is good. Only limited houses you’ll see in your tour. Which means it is hard to live there. Plus there are not any shops over there.

Though Huma Cash ‘n Carry (a big shopping mall on 96 kanal) is under construction, look below its picture. It would be like Metro, Makro or Hyperstar in Lahore which should have all the accessories in it. I’m afraid that only housing society will be short number of people to shop there.

A central park of 500 kanal will be in center of Housing Scheme. It is there main attractiveness and distinct feature. I think they have named their society due to this park. But I’m sorry to say that they don’t have even completed part. See below picture of park which seems to be a rough ground at the time. Yeah but they have placed a sunlight watch in it, that’s a good touch.

Mosque is under construction, there is not any other mosque in Central Park Housing Scheme at the moment. Construction of the mosque is stylish but bit slow, so don’t know when they gonna complete it.

A Medical College is the only functional building in Central Park Housing Scheme. It is working for some years and classes are regularly running over there

Merger with DHA?

According to their official, MOU has been signed between Urban Developers and DHA for Central Park Housing Scheme and DHA’s auditors are there nowadays auditing the data of Central Park Housing Scheme. As soon they finished with the audit, there are 90% chances of Central Park Housing Scheme merger with DHA.

Well this is an official statement, if it goes like this than the plot owner will get much benefit out of it. Otherwise I see it as a long term investment which will not give you any return in next five years. Let’s hope for the best.

      Thank you for commenting Mr. Aqeel

      This post has also date on it which shows that when I’ve written this post which is Feb 10, 2010 and I’ve not taken these snaps from anywhere else, I’ve personally visited the place. At that time it was like in the snaps, now, after 6 months, view might be quite different.

      Secondly I’ve given my personal analysis here, for what some people might agree, some disagree. So it’s nothing personal because I write about lot of societies daily and try to give the true picture to readers. Visit this website thoroughly and http://kirayadaar.com Housing society page, you’ll find lot of other societies info as well.

    Mr Aqeel is right your pictures are pretty old. i have visited this particular site and my aunt has started the construction of her house at central park scheme, it is a very impressive initiative. The park is huge and one of a kind! I believe your views are informative but a little critical of a project of this magnitude. As far as the air avenue merger with dha is concerned, it must have been extraordinary for dha to have wanted to merge with them. That in itself is a sign of the successful construction of their projects.
