They're ultimately going to lose tourists, not gain them, if they keep going this route. An island paradise is why many people come to Caribbean islands in the first place. If I wanted to see high rises along a beach I'd stay here in Massachusetts and go to Revere Beach once city away from me. Yes, right now I'm exaggerating, but in 15 or 20 years, we'll see.


Funny you should mention Revere Beach....was away from it for so many years....went through last year and was shocked to see what has happened to Revere with all the new high rise condos and apartments. I grew up on that beach, in fact, met my wife at Punk's Corner. I so remember all the different rides and roller coasters, the food places....and the millions of people on the beach during a hot summer day...Now...just one high rise after the other. At least Kelly's, Anna's and Bianchi's are still there? smile
