Here's a link to a rendering of what they expect the area to look like after the work. http://lepelican-journal.com/saint-marti...-2015-6555.html
A couple of interesting notes from the article:
* one of the objectives is to make the area suitable for business day and evening
* the local government has budgeted 2 million euros for the work
* all the current occupants are said to be offered an equivalent spot in the new structure if they choose to take it. (So by my reading, the government isn't trying to kick out current occupants)
* They plan to pave the back parking lot and have 80 parking places. which in feb was a cratered minefield for the shocks of our rental hyundai I10 <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />)
It'll be interesting to see how things really play out.
