This delightful building in the center of Charlestown was converted from a former factory building into a modern-day downtown shopping complex. Using bright-colored railings and paint, the renovations have created a lively business center in town. The old stone building with its walled courtyard was once the cotton ginnery on the island. Financed by the Canadian International Development Agency and the Nevis Island Administration (the local government), the restoration is a plus for the town and a home to numerous shops and a small restaurant and bar.
