How much did the 180 luxury apartments off Mirador del Sur Park cost taxpayers? The press has not received an answer yet.

On Wednesday President Leonel Fernandez inaugurated the Av. Luperon luxury apartment complex n 180 apartments in three 17-floor towers, each with two floors of ground parking. The Presidency revealed that the apartments measure more than 157.47 sq. meters and there is 32 square meters of public spaces in addition (three parking spaces per apartment), plus many amenities. The apartments are estimated to have a market value of RD$6 million, but the government has not been available to reveal to the press the cost to taxpayers of the construction that fell under the INVI housing department. The governmental Banco de Reservas will be responsible for the financing. As reported in El Caribe, Rafael Abreu of the INVI said that it is possible that government officials would be the beneficiaries. The apartments were built on government property on the edge of the exclusive Los Cacicazgos neighborhood, off Mirador del Sur Park.
