The thing is, I'm not sure that would be fair, to open them piecemeal. How would one decide which restaurants get the first unit opened? Ones opening first will get income while the others are still closed, and that will never be made back..

The unit location should already have been chosen by each operator as is usually the case. I would think they would be assigned approximately in the same location as they previously were. Why would they punish everyone and make everyone wait? Orient might end up losing valuable tourist business if some of these beach bars are not open by high season.It might not seem fair to open in this manner, but life is not fair, and it really wasn't fair to close them all and rebuild according to the owners.

Agreed, life is not fair. I am not in construction at all, but mprevo's post does make sense to me, although who knows what will actually happen on SXM???

I'm not on Island, but I saw pics posted from yesterday. Roofs were being put on late yesterday afternoon. There is also a large trench dug with large rocks forming the sea wall in front of the units. The rebar that was shown in a previous photo is being used in that wall. Starting to look really nice.
