An excerpt from the regional daily Ideal:
'The Diputación de Almería (ie, the 'county council') and the Town Council of Mojácar are finalizing the details of the work that will transform the main road artery of the town, the Avenida de Paris (the narrow bit under and past the Mirador). The project to widen this road is in the process of being awarded and, once the tourist season is over, work will begin on a project that will improve the lives of residents and visitors to Mojácar, one of the most beautiful towns in Spain, according to sources at the Provincial Institution. This action, which has a budget of 180,000 euros, will secure and stabilize the masonry wall that supports the street, as well as provide pavement and parking on the right bank of this street as it passes under the Mirador...'. Lovely stuff.
The street in question will be widened to allow as many as maybe six or seven extra parking spaces (no doubt to be occupied by town hall staffers), and will there be shops on the bottom floor of the future town hall building - the three-storey edifice which is the base of the Mirador - the viewpoint from the main square above? Time will tell.
The top of the building, the marble viewpoint itself, has a box on the right forefront. This is the head of the lift which will become an attractive feature of the ayuntamiento. Will it be built a little higher, we wonder?
Anyway, as long as 'our lives are improved', it will all be all right in the end.
