As to what it will look like, all that Oscar Fidalgo, the councillor for urban planning, said on Tuesday was that "there will be a new configuration of the kiosk". The plan for the square, which has been talked about for some time, will not take into account what the previous town hall administration had proposed. There is to be a "radical change" to the project.
"It is a project that could have been improved and now, with everyone's contribution, we will try to make it the best project."
One aspect is the location of the statue of Antoni Maura, the only Mallorcan to have been the prime minister of Spain (he was on five occasions in the early twentieth century). The previous project had envisaged the statue being moved ten metres so that it was in front of the Pensión Menorquina building. There will instead be a different location "that has no impact on any of the buildings".

Why can't they leave it be, does everything have to be 'yuppyfied' for rich North European tourists.
