But Miami Beach is sand on top of water. Muchacho, I would Hold off on that Miami idea, the market hasn’t bottomed out yet,(the streets are gonna run red with speculator blood in South Florida before this is over) as for Dominican structures being able to withstand natural disasters, a hurricane, I would say yes; but an earthquake, I haven’t the slightest idea and that is a very good question. Well I have heard that all those tall buildings are huricane and earthquake proof... |

El pais esta progresando. I just hope with all these development that they create enough parking spaces. They should try to look into underground parking lots at these complexes if possible. |

They should try to look into underground parking lots at these complexes if possible. Parking spaces are not a problem…Because they do have enough parking spaces… The problem is that the capital will be over crowed (mas tapones)... that’s why I am a pro metro, cuz SD is going up (more and more high rise building in SD)... so the metro if it is well managed will help reduce congestion traffic in SD |
