More than 100 new social and affordable homes will be built on Brisbane’s northside in response to a growing housing crisis. 

The state government this morning announced Sutton Street in Redcliffe and Ethel Street in Chermside will be locations for the construction of 118 homes.

These will be the first of a number of housing project under the Palaszczuk government’s $1 billion Housing Investment Fund.
