Battery Hill - construction?

Post by Maree »

It appears that a relatively new "big dig" has again marred Cruz Bay landscape and that it is directly below Battery Hill. What is it going to be this time? We plan to stay at BH in July. Anyone know a timeframe for the building to start?

Are you sure it's not Grande Bay, that has been going up for years?? It's seems to be right under Battery Hill. I keep thinking it will be finished the next time I'm there, but it goes on and on and on. :roll:

In Vicki's trip report of 1/14/08, there is a picture of Cruz Bay that shows what appears to be an excavated and terraced area beside Grande Bay and directly below Battery Hill....

I noticed that, but I assumed Grande Bay was "growing". Maybe it is a new development. I'm sure someone will know more than I. I think if you're in one of the upper units of Battery Hill you won't have a view obstrucion, buy I'm not sure about the noise. Battery Hill should be able to tell you the truth about that.
