One writer, Gerard Besson, concludes that, “of the several elements today that comprise our very cosmopolitan nation, the Rada … as they have existed in Trinidad have contributed significantly to our overall national character and heritage. The existence, up until recently, of the Belmont Rada Community has helped in no small way to mould the personality of that very particular part of our capital, bringing to that area a special distinction.”
Gerard was born in Belmont so perhaps he has firsthand knowledge of the impact we have on Belmont, Port-of-Spain and Trinidad. Not too bad when you look at the simple, humble compound.
Take a look at the old door that opened to our greatness!
