buildings


That's an article about tourism development and has nothing to do with any falling down. Perhaps these are the buildings that may have fallen, but the press piece doesn't address that.

Pacenos probably "wished " them down.
And, most likely, not many workers there because of the holidays.
Hardly anybody working here at Loreto Bay.
Anyway, let's hope so.

Just spoke with Carlos at el Moro and he hadn't heard anything about it. But then he's working.

These are the latest construction photos of the project (12/1/07). I could never understand how they could build anything on sand dunes, but 5-story buildings - YIKES!

Fact is, someone needs to drive out there and report back. Buildings don't just fall everyday you know.
