If we mix a disproportionate and rapid way of building houses with no attention to geotechnical studies, the result is that new neighbourhoods are abandoned. Single-family homes costing several hundred thousand euros, with all the details, have been left in oblivion without having been used for the first time.
Si mezclamos una desmesurada y rápida forma de construir casas y no reparar en estudios geotécnicos, el resultado es que barrios nuevos queden abandonados. Viviendas unifamiliares de varios cientos de miles de euros con todo lujo de detalles, han quedado en el olvido sin haber sido estrenadas.
A housing development on the outskirts of La Villa de los Barrios, in Cadiz, Spain, was ready to hand over the keys to the owners of its beautiful villas. But a series of cracks in the asphalt and movements in the hill where the development is located meant they never got to live in them.
Una urbanización a las afueras de La Villa de los Barrios, en Cádiz, España, estaba terminada para darle las llaves a los dueños de sus bonitas villas. Pero una serie de grietas en el asfalto y movimientos en la colina donde se encuentra la obra hizo que no llegaran a vivir en ellas.
The area was fenced off and protected by a round-the-clock security service, but the months went by and then the years. The construction company stopped paying for security and the thieves arrived, taking everything that was easy to sell.
La zona fue vallada y protegida por un servicio de vigilancia durante las veinticuatro horas del día, pero los meses fueron pasando y luego los años. La empresa constructora dejó de pagar la seguridad y llegaron los ladrones llevándose todo lo que fuese fácil de vender.
Grilles, electrical wiring, fittings, windows, doors, even whirlpool baths.
Rejas, cables eléctricos, griferías, ventanas, puertas, hasta las bañeras de hidromasaje.
The shadow of the Rock of Gibraltar can be seen in the background. The trees planted next to the hedges of the urbanisation were gaining space and narrowing the streets.
Al fondo se distingue la sombra del Peñón de Gibraltar. Los árboles plantados junto a los setos de la urbanización fueron ganando espacio estrechando las calles.
The ground has given way and the sewerage system has been lifted up, and the steel covers have also been removed.
El terreno ha cedido quedando levantado el sistema de alcantarillado al que también se llevaron las tapas de acero.
The area is now used for airsoft and some illegal partying among the youth.
La zona es ahora usada para jugar al airsoft y alguna fiesta ilegal entre los jóvenes.
The houses had large garages for several vehicles, a leisure area and several storage rooms. Now there are some traces of bonfires and graffiti with little artistic level.
Las casas disponían de amplios garajes para varios vehículos, zona de ocios y varios trasteros. Ahora algún rastro de hogueras y pintadas con poco nivel artístico.
The area is frequented by pet walkers like myself, and we walk carefully so as not to trip and fall in this neglected place.
La zona es frecuentada por paseadores de mascotas como es mi caso, pasando con cuidado para no tropezar ni caernos por este lugar tan abandonado.
Some houses have been cleared of glass and other debris by groups in order not to harm themselves by being in them and practising whatever they do in them.Airsoft and drunkenness where not to disturb anyone above all.
Algunas viviendas han sido limpiadas de cristales y demás escombros por grupos para no dañarse al estar en ellas y practicar lo que hagan en ellas. Airsoft y borracheras sin molestar a nadie sobre todo.

What a sad waste. It's a shame someone was not diligent to know the area before building.
I fully agree. It's all bulldozer fodder now. Best regards @jacey.boldart.
es triste pero cierto, hacen las cosas sin los estudios previos y estas son las consecuencias.
Seguramente usaron el estudio geotécnico de otra obra anterior o algún truco parecido causando esta tragedia. Un saludo @neoado.
Surely they used the geotechnical study of another previous work or some similar trick causing this tragedy. Best regards @neoado.
