Arrecife Ayuntamiento has purchased the city´s old Flour Mill for three million euros.
Tucked away between the main streets of Calle Manolo Millares and Calle Fajardo, the flour mill is located on C/Alegranza near the Plaza Pedro Alcantará.
It opened in 1955 and was devoted to the sale and distribution of flour and grain around the island. The Ayuntamiento say they plan to use the building as an exhibition space and also a site of a market which may take place on the adjoining square, which will be renamed Plaza de Millo (Maize Square).
