Foreign Perspectives

Not only are roads getting worked on in a fairly major way but everywhere there are houses and office developments under contstruction. And, for the first time every, you see signs along the lines of “development opportunity” just about everywhere. In fact, they seem to be almost as thick on the ground as they are in London. In some places it seemed as if every property on a corner site with a bit of land had “scope for development” and presumably prices to match.

Of course, the downside of all this work is that it now take ages to get anywhere in the city.
