A three-bedroom building for Florence Tyndall, a 69 year-old woman whose home in Plaisance, East Coast of Demerara turned to rubble when an aircraft crashed into it last year is 70 percent completed.
The Ministry of Public Works (MPW) is shouldering the cost which is excess of $10M, disclosed Howard Samaroo, the Ministry’s chief Building Engineer.Andre Howard Construction Service won the bid to execute the contract. The one-storey building is expected to be completed in April, 2014.

Mrs. Tyndall escaped injuries because she was at the back of the house preparing for church when the plane landed on the front of the building.
The two individuals on board the aircraft perished.
