Green connection between new and old

With the aforementioned expansion of the Cinta Costa, Panama's oceanfront boulevard will now have pedestrian, roller skating, and bicycle paths stretching all the way from the modern Skyscrapers of Patilla to the colonial Elegance of Casco Viejo.  Thousands of residences and hotel rooms will have easy access to this costal strip, where tourists may try their hand at tropical exercise or immerse themselves in one of the many seasonal parades planned for the area.

Pronto, la Cinta Costera de Panama ira desde Paitilla hasta el Casco Viejo.  Con amplio espacio para ejercicio o diversión, este área al lado del mar es una excelente manera ver la ciudad o ponerse en forma.  Con miles de residencias y cuartos de hotel por terminar cerca, y la limpieza de la bahía por venir, debe volverse aun mas popular muy pronto!

Gentrification continues in San Felipe

Panama is continuing the success of the Casco Antiguo district by extending the effort to carefully restore historical architecture into the surrounding neighborhoods.  At the same time, the Cinta Costera, Panama's relatively system of waterfront highways and parks, is being extended to accomodate the increased activity in the area.  Seen here, the skilled local craftsmen nestled in with the fishing fleet, buildings that are to be restored, and the results of some of their previous efforts.

Sigue el éxito del Casco Antiguo con el expansión del esfuerzo de restauración a los barrios alrededor.  Hace poco, Panama consiguió nueva fachada con la cinta costera, y ahora se extiende para juntar con San Felipe y acomodar el incremento de actividad en la área.  Aquí: trabajadores locales y sus edificios.
