Just like the town of Jounieh was able to own a traditional house and restore it as a public monument, we hope the municipality of Beirut follows suit. we’re not just talking 2-3 buildings but the entire Zoukak el Blat area, any remaining house overlooking the Ain el Mreisseh bay and many beautiful houses still scattered in ashrafieh and overshadowed by empty and lifeless towers and their blind walls. aside from stressing the infrastructure & depriving the street of water and electricity, ashrafieh towers plunge small ashrafieh streets in darkness in the middle of the day with their bulk. hoping the Beirut municipality realizes that we can also build towers and do business outside Beirut too!
