Panama City - 2007 - 06

This is looking back from the South-Western end of the promenade, towards the East, with the heart of modern Panama City in the background. Alan and Alice are standing on the point. The buildings show a bit hazy, as is normal in the tropics unless there has just been a clearing rain.

This picture begins to show how Panama City is developing; helter-skelter high-rise financial and condominium towers as fast as they can mix concrete. Most of those buildings are not yet finished and have operating cranes on their roofs. Many are condominium projects that are already being sold and traded by the real estate sales forces. This is the 'retirement' and 'second' home Mecca that Panama is selling to Americans and Europeans, and it is currently probably at 1/2 the price of 'back home'.
