I was driving near the Beirut Marina today when I noticed new concrete blocks placed on the sidewalk.

I drove further to find the same concrete blocks supporting metal rods.

Now if you take a look at the inside of the marina , you will notice that these block and rods are meant to form a visual block (as in the photo below) to PREVENT people from watching the sea and the parked yachts.

Very soon, the Beirut Marina will be pretty much like the Movenpick and Riviera, where the sea view is blocked for the public just because they own the land on the seaside.
Anyway, it’s Solidaire’s time now! Bravo! After stealing the center of Beirut now they’re stealing the sea view from the Beirutis.
I know there’s still the rest of the corniche, but still, fuck whoever came up with that idea, they do NOT have the right to do it.
eummm.. so we can hardly see sunsets cuz of high buildings near the sea.. no more nice sea view… i wonder what way they are coming up with to stop us from breathing fresh air — hardly available in beirut —
On the contrary the beirut marina facing the marina towers and the four seasons is on to a beautiful public space. I can tell you more when u want
