You are invited to sponsor one of these planters!

Benito Juarez Day 

Benito Juarez
Benito Juarez Day is a National Holiday on March 21st commemorating the birthday of one of Mexico's most renowned Presidents, often referred to as the Lincoln of Mexico. 

Juarez is remembered for resisting the French occupation, overthrowing the Empire, and restoring the Republic, as well as for his liberal efforts to modernize the country. He was also the first indigenous man to be elected president of the United States of Mexico. He served five terms as president. 

His whole time as president is now called La Reforma, The Reform, because he made so many changes in the way that the indigenous people were treated; they were made as equals under Benito Juarez. He also lessened the mighty Roman Catholic Church, which he felt had too much power when it came to government issues. He created a sort of separation of church and state.

For these accomplishments he is often regarded as one of Mexico's greatest and most beloved leaders.

Rivera Cuale - Inspired and Sustainable Architecture: Part 1

Interview with Santiago Carral, KMD Architects

RiverfrontOne of the compliments that we receive most often from Rivera Cuale's owners and visitors is that our architecture is exceptional. We are also told that our amenities far exceed the competition and that our attention to every detail is remarkable. For that reason, we will center this article on the architecture of Rivera Cuale and tell you what's behind it.

 

We are very proud to hear from KMD Architects, one of the top ten design firms in the world, to show you what the inspiration is behind the project, why this project stands out amongst the competition, and why Rivera Cuale has won multiple international awards and awes residents and visitors alike.

 

We recently had the opportunity to interview Santiago Carral, the director in charge of the Rivera Cuale project at KMD Architects, and we asked him... 

 

What is the inspiration behind Rivera Cuale?

Rivera Cuale is a project that truly inspired our team of architects. We conceived the design by immersing ourselves in Puerto Vallarta's lifestyle and its traditional architecture. Since I was a child I remember spending most of my summers in this beautiful town.

Financing Your Home at Rivera Cuale: Owner Story #2

Written by Charles, Rivera Cuale Owner 

Eleanor & CharlesIn the past we have written articles about financing your Mexico home through a mortgage, and we told you we would bring you more examples in future. Well, this month we are delighted to provide you with one of our owner's stories, firsthand! With many thanks to Charles and Eleanor for sharing their story, and to Charles for having taken the time to write it - here it is! 

 

Who they are and a little background...

 

Eleanor and I are academics.  Eleanor is a Professor of Law at Indiana University School of Law-Indianapolis.  I am a Professor of Medicine and Associate Dean at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis.  We began coming to Puerto Vallarta for Spring Breaks over 20 years ago.  We rented the same house in Alta Vista all of that time.  So our kids and now grandkids are familiar with and love Puerto Vallarta.  We had been thinking about buying a place in Puerto Vallarta in a vague way as we approached retirement, but it was not until we saw the plans for Rivera Cuale that we decided to buy.

A Taste of Spain in Review

Making the paellaThe evening of Saturday, March 5th was a good time at Rivera Cuale! Over 80 guests enjoyed themselves around the pool as the owners and a chef from Pincho & Olé prepared a rich (and massive!) paella, providing commentary on the process as they went along. Some guests remained seated at their tables, patiently anticipating their delicious meal while socializing with friends. Others stood around the paella in a semi-circle, watching mesmerized as though in a trance. And yet a few others, mouths-a-watering, waved their hands over the steaming paella hoping to catch a waft of the delicious aroma as it cooked. 

 

Not only was the evening fun and the food tasty, but we raised the funds we were hoping to be able to donate to the onsite Rivera Cuale-PEACE Community Garden for its start-up! To all who attended - THANK YOU for your support! It sure was great seeing you all again!

Rivera Cuale-PEACE Community Garden Party Fundraiser in Review

Ready for plantingSunday, February 27th was the Garden Party day to raise funds for the Rivera Cuale-PEACE Community Garden. Sadly, the party never quite became the party we had hoped for because in an unexpected turn of events, of all possible days out of dry season to do so, it rained! Nonetheless, the volunteers who were out were able to lay all the new soil and plant tomatoes, lettuce and chard. We appreciate the guests who did show up and make a donation to help out...and then quickly hightailed it into the building to view our model units and get out of the rain!

We appreciate your continued interest in our development! As always, we are here to help with any questions you may have, and we welcome your comments on our newsletter.

Sincerely,

The Rivera Cuale Team
