I just saw this article in the Diario de Leon.
http://www.lacronicadeleon.es/2012/08/2 ... 158808.htm
It describes a construction project to be undertaken by the company Santiago Punto, which is going to build pilgrim accommodations at 64 different points along the Camino Frances and the Camino from LePuy to the border. The accommodations will be rooms with two beds in a prefabricated module, each with private bath. There will be a self-service restaurant, 25 rooms at each place, and a "cyber point" at each facility.
The project is expected to employ 320 people, 60 of them working in the restaurants, 25 in the "Reservation Central," (you can reserve your entire Camino from LePuy in one fell swoop!) and the rest will be working on building the facilities.
Each module will be financed and owned by an individual who lives in each one of the designated stages, perhaps with municipal assistance. The company will then rent the facilities back from each of the owners and operate the albergues.
These modules will be run by the company for 150 days a year, and for the other days of the year, the owners can decide how to use the facilities.
Not quite sure how to react to this.
