continue with the series of brochures and residential buildings from the beaches of Alicante, Alicante previously published in Vivo.
The pace of construction continued unstoppable and, in addition to the above considerations Beaches and promotions mentioned in III, in this fourth part I will place special emphasis on two major roads, which started out on the 70. The first was the opening in the summer of 1976, the first stretch of the Autopista del Mediterráneo in our province, from San Juan to Altea, some short distance, but at least served to relieve the stretch of road between Alicante and Benidorm and especially the excruciating journey of La Vila, where the legendary ordeal had ...
The second and more located in the city of Alicante, was the beginning (also installments) of the connection between Juan Bautista Lafora (and therefore the center of Alicante), with the San Juan beach, through a high capacity road as an alternative (though shared stages with that) of the A- 190 which could not take it anymore. tranches as was done were several: the ave of Villajoyosa by the Quarry (to the Isleta), from La Isleta and to the present Church of Santiago de la Albufereta (ave Condomina), from here to the urbanization and the rest Rotunda to the Plaza de La Coruña (Avenida Costa Blanca, by the way the street with a single name, longest Alicante).
This 7-odd miles, it took many years in the making, because the first parts to be built, were just the beginning and end. The section of the Quarry in 1973 and parallel to the main avenue of Nice (and adjacent streets) in 1976. The rest was completed until the early 80's. In the sections Isleta-Rotunda Avenue Costa Blanca, joined a novelty in Alicante I do not know if it has done it again on another avenue: the utility tunnels, which are tunnels (one for each section of sidewalk on the Cabo de las Huertas), who are visited and featuring the sewer at its bottom and walls can be placed all types of pipelines for services: electricity, water, gas, etc ... without having to open the street to perform these works . 
Azorín: start of a series of buildings (mostly community-owned system), whose names were all famous people Alicante. 
Bahia de Los Pinos: Huge block of luxurious and spacious apartments, and n the beach Almadraba who had the dubious honor of making the next General Plan limits the length buildings to avoid giving the feeling of screen effect. 
Las Brisas: Frontline Albufereta, D. Juan Guardiola Gaya, with a curious face brick with "tile effect" he repeated in another building on the promenade Gadea. 
Manzanares complex: clearly dedicated to enthusiasts of Atletico Madrid. Years later, on a plot nearby Chamartín Complex would be built. 
Cooperative Armajal: never better named the building, because that piece of beach is built on floodplains. 
Entreplayas: named the area between the beach of San Juan and Albufereta. There's even a fogueril district with that name. 
Torres Blancas: at the beginning of the Avenida de Nice. Has the peculiarity of having the railings of the terraces methacrylate (quite rare for that time). Belongs to the "saga of the Whites", many neighborhoods and buildings built by the same promoter and carrying the name of the plabra White / a. 
Sapphire Building. Like Velázquez and others, was promoted by Casa Ferrer, appliance store C / Altamira 24. Is very negative note, which has only 2 elevators for a building with more than 150 homes and surpassing the 20 heights. always put music, of course ... and in this case we continue with the songs of the 70 summer and it's the turn of Izar Cohen & Alpha-Beta with its famous A-ba -ni-bi song that won the Eurovision Song Contest 1978 and sang on behalf of Israel. Years later The freckle kid did a version in Castilian that had great success in Spain.
