Playa del Carmen Inaugurates Plaza Punto Sur Under Public-Private Alliance

Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — City secretary general Luis Herrera inaugurated Plaza Punto Sur on Monday, representing Mayor Estefanía Mercado at a ceremony attended by members of the Playa del Carmen ejido, business leaders, deputies of the XVIII Legislature and families from the ejidal community.

Speaking at the event, Herrera said strategic partnerships between the public and private sectors are essential if Playa del Carmen is to keep growing and creating opportunities.

“Today it is clear that through strategic alliances, sound political work and faith in local talent, we can deliver real results for our beloved community,” he said.

Cecilio Puc Sansores, president of the ejido commission, said the plaza represents the culmination of a project years in the making.

“Today we are not only opening the doors of a shopping center, we are opening the doors to new opportunities, new gatherings and a future with greater possibilities for our families,” he said.

The complex sits on Avenida 38 between Calles 70 and 75 and covers more than 4,900 square meters of construction. Of that, 1,085 square meters is leasable space, alongside 205 square meters of covered outdoor terraces, a 98-square-meter outdoor pergola and more than 153 linear meters of walkways.

The project includes 65 parking spaces, four of them reserved for people with disabilities.
