Photo Description

View of Saint George’s, the capital of Grenada, which is located in the parish of Saint George. Steamship (S.S.) Regina is shown docked in Saint George’s harbor. S.S. Regina, originally built in 1939, was acquired in 1964 by Chandris Cruises and renamed Regina. Her funnel features the Greek Chi symbol which was placed on Chandris ships to honor the founder’s Greek heritage. In the distance can be seen the dark stone walls of Fort George, Grenada’s oldest fort which was built by the French in 1705. Fort George continues (2013) to function as the headquarters for the Royal Grenada Police Force, which it has housed since 1854 when the Colonial Government took over control of the fort. Slide labeled Gren. 9
