Tatu City, a planned $5 billion residential complex outside Kenya's capital Nairobi, received environmental approval for the first phase, including construction of 3,000 housing units and retail operations, Tatu City chief executive Arnold Meyer said late last week, Bloomberg reported.
Renaissance Partners, the investment unit of Renaissance Capital Financial Holdings, is building the project with local investors.
According to the project's website, the development will be home to an estimated 62,000 residents and create more than 330,000 permanent jobs and 220,000 temporary jobs.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
