I think you are talking about La Goleta, there is a thread about it on here but have not got any news on how it's going, perhaps Can Balache would know as they are across the way from it :-

Blimey that looks tall, i thought buildings could only be 4 floors max. Hope it's legal .

 

[Gommar Goffer]

That's what I thought Sparky - it is in effect 8 stories high - the highest in the centre of the port from what I could see!

GG that makes it the same as the Pollensa Park.

It probably hasn't got permission like the poly park they will probably just pay the fine each year. They will have figured it in to the final build cost
It's a funny old place we all love to call home isn't it lol

 

[varsp]

Or maybe they will make them demolish the floors over the permitted four storey's ?

 

[Canbalache]

It's a hive of activity from 7.30 am 5 1/2 days a week, due to open this summer. Ref the height it is no taller than the block two doors away which houses the "gurkha" clothes shop

Looking at previous photos it was previously 4 floors of rooms but there was almost another floor on top of that

Canbalache, is the new La Goleta blocking sunlight,making your street any darker ?

 

[scotslizzy]

That does look too big !

Oh well will see how it takes shape when we visit in June.

Yes Varsp, we live above the bar and it is very noticeable how much darker the apartment has become, although we do not get much sun on the terrace in the winter anyway.

Isn't it just a heavy refurbishment of the original building? When we last looked it just seemed to be the scaffold and netting that made it look higher, although the new roof pool might add a bit.

No it's not, the original 2 storey rear of the building is now 6 storey

Yes, doing a like for like view on Google Streetview with sws97sdg photos there is another 2 stories.

Does anyone have pictures of what is going on at Hotel Romantic/ Ancla? On the webcam you see cement trucks and lots of activity out front but without seeing the building.
