Sitting on a 2.302 hectares piece of land just outside the Nairobi CBD, River Estate will comprise eight apartment blocks each with a total of 34 floors, making the estate the tallest of its kind in the Capital City. Each of the blocks will house 340 units comprising 3-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 1-bedroom units for a total of 2,720 high-rise apartment units.
Other than the apartment buildings, the River Estate will include 875 parking slots for tenants, adequate space for children’s playgrounds, and a shopping complex with 60 outlets among other facilities.
In addition, the project developer also pledged to put up a bridge from the estate to Grogan road across the Nairobi River in a bid to ease the movement of people into and out of the River Estate.
The US$ 70M project is being financed jointly by the national government of Kenya and the county government of Nairobi, in line with the government’s affordable housing agenda.

I reside on Desai Road, Ngara.
The most convenient route to Town Centre using a vehicle is through Globe round about.I am sure that this development will inject huge amounts of traffic into this precinct and it will be impossible to use a vehicle around there.
Globe round about is already a constriction which causes a huge pile of traffic, all the way to Thika. I am wondering how this project was approved by the urban planners. I am also wondering how the Government approved the same. The project is also directly on the Nairobi River riparian. Where are our Urban Planners?
