Qinngorput

Being the most recent district incorporated with the city, it attracts younger people and the focus is on families with school-aged children.

[4] The nearby Nuussuaq district was likewise purposefully erected in the late 1980s in order to minimize auxiliary city costs, stemming from infrastructural investments such as plumbing, power grids, and communications.

[5] Many of the present Blok P tenants have expressed their unwillingness to move to the new district, citing both rising living expenses and lack of commuting possibilities.

[6] The tenants were offered housing in six apartment blocks, built in the Pisissia part of Qinngorput by subcontractor Permagreen.

In addition to the already existing kindergarten and mass transit service points, on May 3, 2011, a new two-form entry school—Hans Lynge School—was handed over to Nuuk city.

While planning the school, the focus was on environmentally friendly design[8] In June, 2011, Sermersooq municipal council earmarked funds for a playground and activity park for children.

In 2008, a road connecting Qinngorput to central Nuuk—via Nuussuaq—was finished, effectively cutting commuting time to the city centre in half.
