At the end of historic Numa Pompilio Llona Street is a bronze plaque announcing the start of Puerto Santa Ana. Even without this boundary marker, you immediately recognize the transition from a very old neighborhood to a very new one. You will be delighted to discover a series of groomed terraces featuring water fountains. There is also a long, scenic promenade hugging the bank of the Guayas River. This is Santa Ana Port. The extensive urban redevelopment project started in 2005 with stunning results. Within ten acres are a harmonious blend of high-rise apartments and office buildings plus hotels, shops and restaurants.
