Mayor of Ribeira Grande visits construction site

The Mayor of Ribeira Grande, Alexandre Gaudêncio, visited the work at Emigrant Square on Friday (May 8, 2020). This new square is included in the Integrated Urban Regeneration Plan and the city’s revitalization strategy.

The European Community funds finance 85 percent of the Emigrant Square, which, according to Alexandre Gaudêncio, has the power to “revitalize the local economy, in particular the construction sector, at a time of difficulties due to the covid-19 pandemic.”

The inauguration of Emigrant Square is scheduled for July 26, 2020 (Sunday).
