Photo Description
The Churchill Building currently stands on the site of the former Adderley building which was purchased by the Bahamian government through the Adderley Property Purchase Loan Act of 1963. The Churchill Building was built in the early 1960s. The Adderley Building, pictured, houses the Tourism Information office and the John F. McCarthy Real Estate Insurance company. The building is located on the south side of Rawson Square which sits on the corner of Bay and East streets. Tourists are driving down Bay Street in a surrey, a horse-drawn door-less, four-wheeled carriage with two seats.
