Wow, do you work for the government? You have a lot of inside info.

Sosúa Beach Renovations
I never said you said a hospital is key, That was another poster.
And I don't have a beach condo!
But there will probably be several Sosua Beach Condos for sale in a year or so.
Nope. I just pay attention. Regarding a high end hospital, or even a "normal" one I would go to, that would not be a government job.
The government has lower end understaffed public hospitals in the DR that I doubt you would want to go to.
As for what the new plaza(s) look like, artists renderings were done by the government. All the info is public.
Plaza(s) plural and additional details from the "negotiations" about Sosua Beach in case you want more information:
Can we please stick to Sosua Beach Renovations? We're hanging by a thread here.
Im still waiting for Pictures of this CONCRETE being Poured .. is NO one on the Ground ??
Where are all these local posters that just love Sosua Beach so much as it is that they're going to move if the casitas get torn down? Doesn't sound like they've been to the beach in quite a while(?).
I enjoy the beach but I'd never consider living or vacationing up there again unless they get rid of all sh*t and the flies first.
I know several honest hard working business owners/ beach shack vendors up there and I do wish all of them the best going forward but this cleansing is long overdue in my opinion.
I'm looking forward seeing the town cleaned up.
The sooner the better as I plan on spending a lot more time relaxing on that beautiful sandy beach, while enjoying an ice cold Presidente Light with my feet in the sand, when all is said and done.
That video was put up over six months ago and was based on the information being fed to them at that time.
I trust Danny's information a whole lot more than some the other's here who think they have "inside information" since he is directly affected by what's going on there. Shortly after that video went up Danny put his condo up for sale and all but announced he was taking his road show to another country.
Six months later, the condo is still for sale, Malibu's is still operating and only Danny knows what his next move might be. But he said along time ago he felt that his time on Playa Sosua was limited.
You seem to act like you are an authority on the matter but never really divulge your sources for information which I suspect is likely google searches and not from someone that really knows. The reality is the only ones that really know are those within the government making it all happen and they are not going to divulge the real truth to anyone but a trusted source that needs to know. I would be willing to bet that Mayor Willie knows full well what's going to happen
Just because they are only moving dirt and doing construction in one location doesn't mean there isn't more coming.
They pretty much have to start with the location they are in to keep from knocking down shacks and disrupting things to much.
They need to finish one area before starting on another or all hell is gonna break loose. These projects will take a very long time to complete.
They can't really do to much on the El Batey side without tearing some of the shacks down since there is not enough room on that side to do a whole lot without destruction of what's already there.
I for one definitely believe that change is coming to Sosua. One can't have progress without change. But it will remain to be seen if the future Sosua will end up being better or worse. I have absolutely no doubt there is a core group of visitors currently going there that they would rather not be there
I also have no doubt that what they say and what eventually happens will be 2 different things and whatever happens at the playa will take a very long time to accomplish. This very subject has been debated for at least 15-20 years and probably way longer.
I also have no doubt that some will be happy with the results and some won't but there are always winners and losers with these projects.
Agreed that he has as much information as anybody.
I did mention, but you may have missed. that I follow the news and what the government has said for many years about the north coast. Nothing more than that. Six months is not a long time when it comes to projects in the DR that have been on the books since before I moved here.
100% agree. Will there be other plaza(s) eventually? The government has said that there will be at least one more plaza and it is in the governments plans on the tourism website for all to see.
I don't expect any of the shacks behind the beach area to be left at all. Neither does Danny. And the elimination of all of those shacks is a part of the governments plan.
Bingo. The government has succinctly so stated and attempted to act on this over the years in ways that were less than successful.
Agree that this will take time and continue well after the beach work is done.
I agree with you but it must said,
people were saying the exact same thing about Av. Duarte in SD when Mr. Collado first made his intentions known.
Perhaps maybe it's time we forget about all of the broken promises made by the last administration and focus on the current one?
I am there most days but lack the ambition to learn how to post photos. Still learning how to use a phone.
All I know is, older people want healthcare where they live. They don't want to travel a good distance to go to the hospital.
What I said was the stuff JD Jones posted looks like a place I would like to hang at. Looked nice. The other stuff posted looks like crap.
Helipuerto on the roof of the hotel, emergency patient will be transported to PP or Santiago.
