Raven: > [... re: the recent fire near GZ ...] the area still being blocked off. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear they have begun construction.
The Riffort is a national monument, administered by Curacao's Monunent Foundation (what we locally call "Monumentenzorg"). The foundation is still fighting with the insurance company and the original restaurant where the fire broke out, hence unfortunately zero progress is being made towards the roof's restauration at this time. :( :( :(
While this cache has been around since 2008, I'm reluctantly archiving this one... until the political mess can be sorted out and the rif's roof can be restored in earnest.
@CacheShadow: thanks for all your patience all this time, hope to still be able to re-open this classic oldie once the dust has settled (since yes, funny enough the cache is still there, but inaccessible right now).
