Span Tower 24

Today, out of the blue, I got a marketing email from a Sri Lankan construction company. It was to an old email address, so they must've been ensuring their lists are up-to-date.  For years, I've been inquiring from various sources about property on the island.

Span Tower completes only smaller projects, most under 10 stories. The capital of Sri Lanka is now awash with enormous megabuildings and shopping complexes. Those who sent me information today seem to build normal residences rather than luxury condos designed for international speculative investment.  This is the sort of building in which ordinary hardworking people could eventually own.

   

So, I did a bit of research on the projects coming up for completion soon. That let me Google Map the areas to find one which would be of interest to us. Some folks spend a lot of wasted time thinking about impossible things. I suppose I should be grateful that I can daydream about things that we could actually afford.  It'd be nice to own a place we could use for winters or rent out.
