"Solidere" Beirut Local Custom Tip by iwys

Beirut Local Customs: 36 reviews and 46 photos

 
 

Solidere is the name of the urban renewal project for the reconstruction of Downtown Beirut or BCD, following the destruction inflicted by the Civil War. Solidere, which was founded in 1994, is an acronym for Societe Libanese pur le Developpement et la Reconstruction du Centre-Ville de Beyrouth - you can see why it needs an acronym.

They seem to be doing a great job. I was really impressed by the elegant new buildings in and around Place d'Etoile.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
