Sorry for what??

And so, if Ciudad Quesada is just an 'Urbanisation' or Rojales, where does the word 'Ciudad' (City) fit into all the urbanisation malarky??

The plot thinkens..........

Because Old Man Quesada said he would build a city so he named it Ciudad Quesada

Not well sign posted at all for newcomers or strangers.

Indeed mondo. Though its neither a town or city, just a wee minor urbanisation

There is a town called Quesada in the Jaen province of southern Spain.
I suppose that they could not have two towns called exactly the same.

Is this Wikipedia article wrong then? It states that CQ has it's own town hall which I imagine is actually the cultural centre?

I heard (and so it's probably untrue) that the Quesada family wanted there own town and so put in all the infrastructure (town Hall, Cultural centre, Police station) but it was refused because they had some links to Franco. Maybe it's for the best that one family doesn't have total influence over a town.
