Marvin Le MartianAndy I remember an article when the work on redevelopment started then stopped for whatever reason. I made the observation then, that the remaining outer wall structure had no visible secondary support and the weather or a good puff of wind would bring the last of what was a lovely old hotel crashing down. But times, styles, and fashions change. the desire for a move upmarket, “ if the old place wasn’t upmarket enough “, require modern Dubai style touches of “sky bars and butlers,” So the odd “ooops “ moment that gives a open new and obviously less expensive redevelopment opportunity to create the new style. Personally I liked the old place.
This is exactly why Mallorcan politics is taken as a complete and utter joke. Not to mention the ( more than credible ) accusations of corruption of some of those involved, but not least; the building has been demolished without permission! FFS! Like that’s never happened here before? It’s shameful, embarrassing and wrong. Again.
