Costa Rica's ICE to demolish historic Sabana Norte HQ for new tower

Costa Rica's state electricity and telecommunications utility (ICE) is proceeding with plans to demolish its historic headquarters in Sabana Norte, San José, citing internal studies that propose costs for demolition and construction of a new tower on the same site. The decision marks a significant urban redevelopment move, though heritage concerns may arise. The project signals a major infrastructure investment in the capital.
