Jenny's on the Boulevard- Photo by Jason Bain |
This building was chosen as Jenny's is an example of some form gentrification. little is known about the previous occupation of the building but it now serves as one of the most popular restaurants in Trinidad and Tobago. Its intricate architecture is reminiscent of old Victorian style buildings and it is kept in impeccable condition as they must adhere to health codes for their restaurant. Apart from this, it is indeed one of the best kept restoration projects in the country and it poses as an inviting figure, with its bright colors and lush greenery.

If you need somewhere to, as we Trinis say, "lime'', Ariapita Avenue is the place to be. it is a strip located in the heart of Port-of-Spain. This strip is lined with some of the oldest (and newest) buildings in the capital, most of which consist of bars, restaurants and clubs, but there are also businesses and even residences located along the strip. It is definitely the hub of nightlife in Trinidad. Those buildings that heaven't been demolished or reconstructed show evidence of having similar architecture as the Magnificent Seven located around the Queen's Park Savannah.

I'm not clear on the relationship between Ariapita and Jenny's.
