TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin More construction in Cupecoy

There are two new towers going up near Poerto Cupecoy. Now near the Cupecoy market an excavator has been there the last couple of days removing all the trees and leveling out the property. Looks like maybe another building going up. It’s very disrupting listening to that noise every day at Sapphire Beach club or nearby.

Sorry, I think Cupecoy is a sh*t show. All those huge buildings, which are an eyesore to me, and accessed only by a road that floods whenever it rains.

Sounds like its becoming Miami Beach or something?! Yeesh.

Absolutely.

Yes Carol, the condition of that road should be criminal. We drove through there just once last trip and dh said never again. Biggest mess and been that way forever.

The two new concrete towers are visible from Porto Cupecoy, but they aren't really near Porto Cupecoy. They are on Tigris Road, past Fat Tony's and past the Caribbean International Academy. It looks like the developer may be creating a new access road adjacent to the Blue Residence (formerly the Blue Mall).

I also noticed the new bulldozed area across from Sapphire Beach Club. Could be a new access road, could be new parking, and could be a new building of some sort.

I know there is a new road being built. We hear the excavator working all day. Loud loud noise.
