The making of Greystone Towers, Victoria Island, Lagos

A couple of years back, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs birthed Platform Petroleum Limited and in the course of set up and acquisitions, a property was acquired on Victoria Island.

Lulu-Briggs  planned to set up a befitting 15 floor  Corporate Headquarters for the firm but his enthusiasm was shot down, when the Town Planing authorities told them that permits will only be granted for nothing less than 19 floors (Storeys).
This reinforces our belief that a government can determine to a great extent the outcomes in its community or pattern of urbanization.

Dumo Lulu-Briggs and his team took up the challenge and  the project named Greystone Towers on Idowu Taylor, Victoria Island, Lagos is the result of the plan.

It is the tallest  on that street but the Total-fina building at 28 floors still holds the ace in Lagos.

It is refreshing to Port Harcourt people that a Port Harcourt boy is involved in a mega project that is not government related.

Adjust your dreams and aspirations accordingly.
