Opportunity Zones
A running series on Cuba's infrastructure, asset by asset: the Port of Mariel, José Martí Airport, the proposed air taxiport, the Cabo Cruz spaceport. Each article tells its history — built when, named after whom, what's happened lately — where it stands today, the opportunity to rebuild it, and the verified companies who could. Like Dynasties, but for infrastructure.

Mariel, Artemisa · Cuba's deepwater gateway
From the 1980 boatlift to a Neopanamax gateway — the single asset most able to anchor a Cuban trade rebuild.

Havana · Cuba's main international gateway
Cuba's front door since 1930, and the airport where modernization would pay off most.
Read the story →Havana Air Taxiport (eVTOL)
Havana · proposed personal-air-vehicle hub
No runway required — the proposed hub of a national eVTOL air-taxi network. A build target, not a built place.

Cabo Cruz, Granma · ~19.8°N, Cuba's south coast
~19.8°N, ~8.7° closer to the equator than Cape Canaveral, facing an empty southbound sea. A concept for a future sovereign Cuba — not a current plan.
