Recession hits Construction in Spain

I spent just an hour going around the area I live in and took some photographs of some areas that should have been developed but has now stopped.
DSCF3154This is a group of houses, the six on the left have been sold and are occupied either full time or as holiday homes. The two on the left have been abandoned by the builders. Just left to go to seed as you can see from the bush in the garden of the uncompleted house second left.
This area, below, the builders started at the bottom of the hill and worked up. In this case they at least finished the homes in progress. However, the land up to the sign, 50 metres by 100 metres has been left, again to go to seed.
DSCF3156The next construction site, because that’s what it is, nowhere near completion, shows 4 apartment blocks. The two in front obscure the two behind (i could not get closer!).They have been left like this for 3 years. Notice the cranes, they have been left there as there is nowhere for them to go, so they sit there unused and getting unsafe. The area used to be an orchard (i only wish it still was!), you can see nature trying to reclaim it back.
DSCF3163 These half finished buildings blight the areas. The Town Halls it seems don’t care.
