The sprawling six square kilometre Bab al-Aziziya complex once housed a swimming pool, sports pitches, senior officials' villas and gardens as well as an underground bunker, government offices and buildings belonging to the feared and pervasive security apparatus. Some residents recall how they were too scared to look at it when they drove past to avoid harassment by security agents. But the revolution that toppled Gaddafi reduced it to rubble. "We will soon start moving the debris from Bab al-Aziziya as well as conducting a security scan of the area," Imam told a news conference.[/quote] [url]http://libya.tv/en/bab-al-aziziya-make-over-begins/[/url] [quote]Bab al-Aziziya military compound’s transformation has begun as contract companies begin to remove the rubble and begin constructing a family park in the heart of Tripoli. The Minister of Tourism made the announcement, saying a temporary fence will be erected to protect the site and avoid any interruptions to the workflow. “Bab al-Aziziya will be a green area, for development and entertainment for every Libyan in the city of Tripoli,” Ikram Basha Imam told reporters in Tripoli on Tuesday.[/quote]
