MADISONVILLE, LA, Feb 22, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Phoenix Associates Land Syndicate (Phoenix) (PINKSHEETS: PBLS) announced an extensive program to finance and construct affordable housing. The Company is addressing this need by commencing to build affordable homes for families located in urban areas, small rural and suburban towns, villages and communities worldwide. These homes will be built singularly or in clusters as the local situation dictates. The Affordable Houses The Phoenix affordable homes are of steel construction, pre-fabricated and have approximately 1,200 square feet of living space. This square footage can easily be adjusted upward or downward depending on the need in the area the homes are to be built. Construction costs are dramatically lower than any other type of construction of equal quality. There are several basic models to choose from which are already erected at several sites in the United States. These affordable homes are hurricane resistant and are currently rated at 150 mph wind load. Additionally, where needed, a heavy duty version of this home is available at a slightly higher cost that has a wind load rating of 250 mph. Also, these units are fire resistant and termite proof, will not shrink, split, warp, swell, rot or corrode, are lightweight and precision engineered with complete design flexibility, have a lower cost than other types of construction and have no weaknesses such as wood with knots which can lead to sudden unexpected failure. Phoenix will provide faster delivery times and the home are fully guaranteed and copyright protected. Since they are constructed of steel and rust proofed, they will last indefinitely. An additional bonus of these homes is that they are extremely energy efficient. Insulation values in the walls are R-32 and in the ceiling and roof are R-55 rated. Depending on location of the home, this will offer a 30-45% energy reduction on the heating and cooling of the home. Financing Mortgage financing will be handled by local banks in the U.S. or governmental agencies abroad. The initial land acquisition and construction financing will be handled by Phoenix. Phoenix has identified and believes that there exists a special demographic of potential investors for this acquisition and construction financing phase. These investors are high net worth individuals such as professional athletes, film and television personalities and other celebrities with high amounts of discretionary income. All publicity regarding their investment will go to the celebrity. Celebrities have their own public relations people who, we believe, will see an investment by their clients in this affordable housing program as a public benefit. This is a powerful incentive for celebrity investment. Phoenix is confident that celebrities and/or their financial advisors will view this investment as an excellent opportunity to achieve a far greater than market return on capital. The vehicle for the construction and sale of these affordable homes is a wholly owned subsidiary of Phoenix. The First Affordable Homes Project Phoenix has presented its affordable housing program to the City of Laurel, Mississippi. Phoenix's proposal was met with great enthusiasm by Mayor Melvin Mack and The City of Laurel has a waiting list of more than 600 applicants who fit the profile as purchasers of a Phoenix affordable home. The Mayor and other city officials have expressed a desire to work with Phoenix in constructing these 600 affordable homes so that their citizens can "participate in the AMERICAN DREAM of home ownership." Phoenix is working with The City of Laurel to set up liaison with the various city departments to inspect available housing sites and begin construction. In addition, Phoenix has discussed its affordable homes proposal with several agents of sports and entertainment celebrities. These agents believe this will be beneficial to their celebrity clients with regard to not only publicity, but also financially.

In line with plans to significantly expand production capacity to keep up with demand, a new 14x12 dredge is to arrive on or about Tuesday, March 6th. Once this new dredge is connected to a screening plant, MS&G will have three operational production lines. The Company's plans call for five operating sites at the mine to be producing sand and gravel products within 60-90 days. Mr. Alonzo added, "Upon bringing our production operation up to five production sites over the next two to three months, we will then be able to take on contracts for our gravel and sand products from a number of new customers that we are not now able to handle." Additionally, Phoenix management has decided to install a web cam at the MS&G site. The web cam will be linked to the Phoenix web site so that shareholders will be able to view ongoing operations and future expansion activities at the Pearl River mine site. Shareholders will be informed once this web cam is operational.
