We’ve been sitting in renovations for quite a while now. First our own flat, then our flat building, and then the plaza was up for renovation. So actually in the last 1.5 years not a day has gone by without construction going on in our vicinity.

The plaza is still quite far from being finished, but it’s starting to shape up and below pictures give a glimpse of the plaza new style.

Our local developer and owner of Discovery Bay - the Hong Kong Resort company - is the one responsible for this all, and I do have to say the end result is starting to look good. I can’t say the same thing about the process they’ve taken to get here; it’s been an endless succession of periods of progress followed by periods of inactivity. Inactivity apparently caused by ‘external factors’ such as licenses, supply shortages etc. These aren’t actually external factors in my view, they’re all part of basic project management and should not happen at all!

I guess this will take another 4 months to complete, maybe more…
