he's a smart man, he gets paid to promote it, but doesn't have to invest his own money -- kind of like trump up the coast aways, a promoter, but not a
financial partner.

That is his involvement. It will be his third course design along with a billion dollar development in Dubai and one in North Carolina.

You are right, Bajaguy! Even if they "fly"in to that "private" airport it's still a crappy road from that point on.

Stanford grad
Nothwithstanding his degree from Stanford he still seems smarter than this.
Sounds like another "name promotion" to me.

Arroyo Taxi,
Punta Banda is west of Maneadero which is a little bit south of Ensenada. It's on the AAA map, look at D-3 on the AAA map.

If you are asking to see it on a map:
It is the long point that is the southern end of Bahia de Todos Santos (The bay of Ensenada)... Also, the populated 'town' along the road that goes
out to La Bufadora, near the end of the point.

This could be just another "pipe dream" in todays current financial situation. I have never personaly set foot out on the end of the point,so I could
be wrong. However, I have looked at it closely from sea,1/2 mile off or so, and it doesn't appear to have alot of flat land. Where woud they build the
golf course? Beautiful spot though. But at $3 million for lots and condos, My goodness!! Thats even more than Laguna Beach. WOW!!++C++

Desalination might be in the plan. De-TOPE plan may have to wait . All of those black helicopters that have been flying around here past 3 months
seem to glide right over them.

I agree with Bajadoc, those interested parties are flying right over the Topes in their many helicopters. I live about 3 km from the new Punta brava
site and hope the infrastructure improves in the area, but I'm not holding my breath. I understand the de-sal plant has already been constructed but
not yet operational. Very difficult to gain access, unless you look like you can afford it, and drive a much better vehicle than my 93' Jeep. Many
security guards, on foot and in vehicles to keep out the curious.....like me.

If I were an investor I wouldn't worry about the environmental impact, I'd worry about the first good Pacific storm washing out the only road into and
out of the property.
We watched it being built and it sure looked iffy back then...
