In Yekaterinburg, YIT started the construction of more than 160 apartments in the Rifei area development project. The apartments are due to be completed in the final quarter of 2021.

The area is scheduled to be fully completed in 2023, so the newly started project is one of the last in the area.

The new apartment building will consist of over 270 apartments and they are due to be completed in the spring 2022. The Novo Orlovsky area is located in North St. Petersburg with excellent transport links and services right on the doorstep. YIT has been developing the area since 2014. In addition to residential buildings, YIT has built a school in the area and transferred a plot of land to the city to enable the construction of two day-care centres.
