So much for 3 months.....
We were there from April 13 - 20th. no paving. It did looked like the bulldozer came around not too long because the road was relativly smooth. But on the sencond night we were there, a big storm came and hit us. When we walked down the street, lots of pot holes...and in two places the road was half washed away.
I don't know much about the ecological impact on paving the street, but I do think it would change the quaintness and ambiance of West End. I don't know...there is something about spending the entir week without shoes and walking down the sandy road.
