    Photo Description

    Buildings near the harbor in Saint George’s, Saint George, Grenada. Many of the buildings’ architectural elements feature symmetrical designs. People can be seen walking along the harbor as automobiles pass by. Some of the retail establishments include “Jonas Browne & Hubbard Ltd.,” “The Royal Bank of Canada,” “The Nutmeg Bar & Restaurant,” “The Food Fair,” “BWIA,” and “Hankeys.” Jonas Browne and Hubbard Limited is a supermarket, which has been in business since the 1830s. Food Fair is also another supermarket chain. Trinidad and Tobago based BWIA, British West Indian Airways, was incorporated in 1943 by Lowell Yerex. The clock tower of Saint George's Anglican Church can be seen above the city. Saint George's Anglican Church was built in 1825 and suffered damage during Hurricane Ivan in 2004, losing its roof. The clock tower, constructed in 1904, still remains. Small boats can be seen in the harbor along with Merchant Vessel (MV) Geestcape, partially pictured, which entered service in 1966. In 1935, the Van Geest brothers in Spalding, United Kingdom started a horticultural business. The brothers later expanded their business to include a cargo service to carry horticultural produce, primarily bananas, from the Windward and Leeward Islands to Europe. Slide labeled Harbor + City Grenada.
