Laser Hair Removal Brown Skin

"Banks? For what!

is easy illusions. way Las Mercedes avoiding gaps, avoiding open sewers, dodging trees truncated because an accurate ax resolved with one stroke, the error of those who selected a species whose roots impetuous inadequate sidewalks and curbs exploded. Suddenly I see a new building next to grow a wider sidewalk that I'm using and I cross the street. All is not lost.

The Toulon II is the work of Real Estate Securities Fund. Same entity that built more than a decade, the CC San Ignacio, an architectural created by Carlos Gómez De Llarena, that gave our city a generous work, integrated into the landscape, from whose terraces, the visitor can choose between El Avila north and south town of Chacao. I walk. Bordering the windows of the north facade is a bank, whose design includes some grids I presume are for ventilation of the basement parking. But obviously that was not what caught my attention, but some elements of metal, aggressive, taking place in the whole area of \u200b\u200bwhat I "thought" was a bank.

was great my shadow. The lips of the worker who fixed these metals fell silent to my question why is this? said I do not know , but it was obvious he did know. I knew I was installing a specific material to prevent someone sit there. is following the orders of "an architect? Does a developer? it closes another door to civility and public life in our city. Surely security advisers, those same people who crowd the doors of bars, walls, electrified wires, glass alarm, ordered to cut off all possibility of meeting on the wide pavement.

Groups of teenagers chatting from his cell, laughing as they do on the sidewalks of San Ignacio, or a mother trying ice cream while your baby enjoys our sun Caracas, are a threat to those who live there, because this Tolon II is a set of housing with floor trading. This type of mixed use so successful in Chacao, Los Palos Grandes, La Candelaria, Monte Bello, and we had no news since making multifamily apartments became pile whose base are the stands.

But now I understand. How the real estate group that gave us wide sidewalks, a sort of Grand Café in Las Mercedes, the first Toulon, was making those "sidewalks" on pallets fences, roofs, which is only accessible from inside the mall would have a kind gesture to us, citizens in the age of insecurity?

I wonder: what does the mayor of Baruta ? And I answer: nothing. That is the same mayor who allowed throughout the duration of this work, the ground in front him into a rubbish dump. And now, after removing the rubble proudly displays its full splendor of neglect, abandonment. A broken front and a lot of land in sight of all would be the view of those who sit in those banks that never were. After all, it is better to look toward the windows.
