When they first announced this, one of their points was that the height was no problem, "just look at The Cliff"! Yeah, just LOOK at it! Saw a post the other day that mentioned the "Cardboard Cliff"!
We'll see if this ever happens. We see lots of things that are going to happen go poof!

What is going on with the Cliff? When the hurricane first happened, I recall that the manager said that there was structural damage. I think they are now denying that? How many stories is the Cliff?

Really have no idea, just rumors but supposedly the original rumor that the building twisted is unfounded. At least one elevator is working! But they surely have a long way to go, and a lot of money! I think there' s 13 -14 stories???

All I remember is the interview with the manager days after the hurricane in which she claimed there was structural damage to the building. So these monstrosities are half again as tall as the Cliff. Wow..

We were incommunicado during that time, never heard the interview. There surely must be structural damage, especially now that's the holes in it have been open to the elements for over 6 months. Those metal studs are rusting away I would expect.

The insurer (Ennia) reinvested 80% of it's reserves in other companies owned by Parma Group of Husang Ansary. Mullet Bay Property got entangled in a web of misfortunes after the hurricane hit in 1995 https://www.thedailyherald.sx/islands/58079-concentration-risk-at-ennia-said-high Let's hope what happened does not happen again! If a property was destroyed from Irma/ Maria, let there be a time limit to rebuild. The Government let Mullet Bay remain in ruins for decades!

Yes, i would think the type of fire fighting equipment available would be a factor in the building permit?
