Introduction to:
The St. George's Renaissance Project
Following the successful completion of the cruise ship jetty, the Esplanade Mall and the Bruce Street Mall, Zublin has entered into discussions with Government on how best to improve the social and economic conditions existing in the Town of St. George.
The Zublin team in consultation with Government has conceptualized the St. George’s Renaissance Project. The Renaissance Project has been described as one of the most ambitious single projects ever undertaken in Grenada and one of the most unique in the region.
The project is aimed at fuelling economic growth while preserving and protecting important historic buildings, landmarks and symbols. The project is considered as ideal for establishing a public/private sector partnership and well over 450 million EC dollars will be invested.
The St. George’s Renaissance will include the creation of a second cruise ship jetty; the building of a ring road from the Carenage to Melville Street; improvement of the Carenage infrastructure to address the proble ket facility next to the fish market; and the creation of a pedestrian only Sendall Tunnel. The project will also see the reclamation of land at the cruise ship terminal area to create a state of the art, conference centre and casino and the construction of a theatre for the arts.
