### August 21, 2019

Some more press appeared today on Las Catalinas, [a nice article in the Tico Times](http://www.ticotimes.net/businessarchive/2010_04/041610.htm), which is the leading English language newspaper in Costa Rica.  From the article:

> "I had the idea of building a town where the different elements of life such as houses and apartments and shops and workplaces are together on walk-able streets, rather than separated out into separate pods, Brewer told The Tico Times. One of the things that I hope we will accomplish is to introduce a pattern of development that I think would serve Costa Rica wonderfully well, which is that of a compact, walk-able town with lots of preserved nature surrounding it...
> 
> "The element of beauty is important, Brewer said. What we aspire to have is a place that has the energy and inclusiveness of a place like Tamarindo, but that's well-planned and beautiful. Places like that do not exist on beaches in the new world tropics."
