Building Boom! (Part Two)



A few more images which I assembled for the Business Liberia Magazine article on Monrovia's construction activity. This flashy tower on the corner of Sekou Toure Avenue and Newport Street, on Mamba Point, with its glistening green glass curtain wall, is really striking, as glazing like this is not common around town-- a real sign of how far along Monrovia is coming (just take a look at this same corner fifteen years ago!)

Hey Matthew,

Thanks for posting such interesting images and other tid bits. I love that you link to the same corner years ago - I saw a photo of my street, Old CID Road, during the war with a bunch of guys with big ass guns. It was quite shocking and quite the contrast.

Best,
Glenna
