In Shymkent, the modernization concept for the Koksay microdistrict, known locally as "Green Beam," continues. The history of this district dates back to 1915, when railroad construction began in the city and the first settlers arrived.

The area was also known as "Nakhalovka" because a significant portion of the houses were built by residents without proper documentation. For decades, problems with the housing stock and crime persisted. Most of the apartment buildings in the area were built over a century ago and are now in disrepair.

Following meetings with residents, Shymkent Mayor Gabit Syzdykbekov decided to modernize the district and begin the practical implementation of a resettlement program and the construction of a new district center.

The initial stage of the Green Beam modernization concept is the relocation of residents from dilapidated buildings to modern apartments under the multi-apartment residential building renovation program.

Today, Mayor Gabit Syzdykbekov presented keys to new apartments to eight more families who previously lived on Nurlybaev Street. The mayor congratulated the new residents on their new homes, wishing them prosperity, stability, and comfort in their new homes. The apartments, which are fully finished, match the number of rooms in the families' previous homes and are ready for occupancy.
To date, 83 families have already received new housing.

Following the completion of the resettlement of residents, plans are in place to construct a district administration building, a sports and fitness center, social facilities, new apartment buildings and parks, expand the existing school, and create a multifunctional shopping and logistics center.

The project is being implemented in stages. It represents not only an upgrade of the city's infrastructure but also a significant contribution to improving the quality of life and well-being of the district's residents.
