Guys I do not think anyone here is saying either that poverty has been erradicated from the Dominican Republic nor debating the construction guidelines used in the island because none of us are the architects constructing them and for your information Inmobiliaria Cespedes which is a real estate company owned by my family does follow Miami construction guidelines for buildings greater than 5 stories. Yet that is not what is being debated here. This forum is simply showing the great amount of construction going on in the City of Santo Domingo. The city is getting built up and that is what is being commented on in this forum not the construction guidelines nor poverty guidelines.

Yes that is true the fire department does not have the right equipment I agree, and many of the older buildings were not built properly but I do know that a lot of the new ones are using the proper guidelines. As far as the fire department what we can do is preassure our government to improve the facilities and grant all of our fire departments the equipment needed to manage in a fire of this magnitude that you are talking about. There is still progress to be made, no question about it but that cannot blind fold the construction boom that indeed the city of Santo Domingo started experimenting 10 years ago. For God sake let's not put our country down and if we will criticize let it be constructive criticism and not be little our 1 and only nation, Dominican Republic.

That is a great idea and it is something that can be done in Santiago and Santo Domingo. Maybe you can write to el Sindico de Santiago and Roberto Salcedo in Santo Domingo and sujest it. It is a need in our growing cities.

I don't know if they would even consider it since they would have to make many roads wider. There is a piece of road that fell off a cliff on the road that connects Santiago to San Jose de la Matas, that is one of the most dangerous curve in the country. It makes a 2 lane road into one lane next to a hair pin curve, and the only thing that stops you from falling hundreds of feet are some small trees. Its been there for years and no one has done anything about it. I don't know if you ever been in that area.

That's the famous Bosua Curves. Eventhough they cut through the mountain when the road was rebuilt, it wasn't far enough in and ever since it was finished, the side started to give in. This road has a very heavy amount of traffic and should have been widened more, but lack of proper planning has led to this death trap. Watch out...
