Bottom end of same street as in post 1, taken today. It's closed to traffic below Hotel Colina do Mar while new drains are being laid.  It's Rua Maria Teresa S. Azvedo.

They'll be fixing a hole where the rain gets in, I suppose. Hmmm

“Before T'Rovers had money, they had a dirt car park that was like the surface of the moon. I said to the attendant "Are these the 4000 holes then?"
That would be twenty years ago today 😉 |

Back to reality the hole is now more or less filled in but the roads are still closed waiting for the lorryload of cobblestones to be relaid.

None really. They have certainly been there 20 years if not more. A typical example of property speculation, financial mismanagement and then collapse. After all this time they are probably beyond redemption. A real eyesore for anyone who bothers to look up from the tacky shops and bars on the ground floor.

Yellow machinery was being brought in earlier. Maybe men will be at work.

Probably earth tremors caused by the dancing going on in the new Havana bar...
