A unique social housing project is set to open in Dunedin next month.
The Loan and Mercantile building on the city's waterfront will have 30 apartments for low income tenants from the government's Housing Register.
The developer, businessman Russell Lund, says it'll likely be the first social housing project in the country inside a heritage-listed building.
He joins Emile Donovan.
