The Lure Of Panama: U.s. Efficiency With A Latin Soul

If you have traveled abroad, you know the routine… Get off the hot, restless plane, dump your bags in the room and then check with a local - perhaps a cab driver or a hotel clerk - about his favorite place to grab a bite to eat.

In most places in Panama, your waiter or host will enthusiastically interject that you absolutely can drink the water that flows from the Chagres River, a key tributary of the Panama Canal watershed. A popular old saying is often repeated: “Once you drink water from the Chagres, you will return to Panama.”

The St. Enoch Center Rehab Benefits Retailers In Glasgow

The major project to rehabilitate the Glasgow City Centre’s shopping district started with the construction work at St. Enoch Centre shopping complex.

The £100 million project funded by Canadian owner and manager Ivanhoe Cambridge will transform the 18-year old centre and enhance the city’s reputation as a top U.K. area for shoppers.

The Clydesdale Bank building has begun to be demolished as the first stage of the project, which should be complete by the start of 2010. The new Center will have over 1,000,000 square feet of shopping and leisure area, and will be able to house 40 additional stores. Major upgrades to the surrounding area include an amazing new entrance located at the corners of Argyle and Buchanan streets, radical upgrades to the St. Enoch Square, and a complete revitalization of the mall’s interior space.
