The Municipality of Santo Domingo was able to stop the Ministry of Public Works from building an apartment complex in the Jardines del Norte neighborhood. The neighbors turned to the Municipality, protesting that the apartment complex would go up on their park grounds. Yesterday, Minister of Public Works Diandino Peña met with Mayor Johnny Ventura and it was decided that the construction would be suspended until the Urban Planning Department and the Legal Department of the Municipality issued an opinion giving a go ahead or rejecting the project.
