That has been reported a couple of times here before. They were working on it when we were on island at the beginning of June. Personally I don't see anything wrong with it. Simpson Bay needs parking. Much better than building another restaurant or store..

As far as the size, I assume, without knowing, that the property next to it was not owned by government, so they couldn't make it bigger.

Remember all of the angst concerning the new causeway. I love it.
Then again all the people upset at the replacement of th buildings on Orient Beach. I think they look nice.
Not all progress is bad. So very true, Paul. In that area in particular I'd far rather see a much needed parking lot as opposed to another high rise development. And I remember how negative I was towards the idea of the Boardwalk when its construction was first proposed, and yet today, I think it's a wonderful addition to downtown Philipsberg. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
