A while ago, Danny Khalil posted on soc.culture.lebanon
about an article that apeared in the press about the reconstruction of
down town Beirut. Danny sent me the article and I scanned it. Here it
goes .......(Alaa Dakroub)
A Glittering Beirut rises From the RubbleBy Doug StruckBaltimore SunThese are scanned images of an article that appeared in the San Fransisco Chronicle on Septembre 12, 1994 (page A12). As the Title of this page indicates it's about the construction project of Beirut. It consists of three GIF files. The first one is picture of downtown during the demolition of the buildings. The seccond is the fisrt part of the artcile and the third is the last part. Click on the correspondant piece to get the GIF file(s) (The picture is of a poor quality to limit the size of the files, thanks for your understanding !!!)
