I
gave an explanation in this column of last week’s edition as to why the
Egg was built in the middle of the new roundabout to the entrance of the
town of San Antonio, which was a tribute of Christopher Columbus.
Therefore, for our seventh weekly photographic series on the face-lift
of San Antonio, which took place at the beginning of the1990s, we are
showing several pictures on the finishing point of the Egg.
In
these pictures shown today the palm trees have been planted the length
of both sides of the new duel carriageway that runs along the sea front
and the finishing touches are being applied to the new roundabout and
the Egg.
However, there is still the arduous work yet to be started on reclaiming
the extra twenty-five metres of land from the sea that will make way for
the new promenade with its jetties for private boats moorings and the
landing-piers for the beach ferry-boats.
