Today I decided to try something a little different with my Dry Land Tourist Chronicles post.
Jamaica, much like her people, is very diverse.There is more to her than sand, sun, sea, reggae & weed. She has a rich history that I hope to do justice & present to you my readers.
I have been to the Jamaica Conference Centre many a times but I never really looked at it & saw the work of art it truly is.
A few months ago I had a meeting there that started a little late, so I passed the time by exploring the Jamaica Conference Centre many
A Little History….
Located on the picturesque Kingston Waterfront, the Jamaica Conference Centre was built in 1982 as the venue for the preparatory meetings of the International Seabed Authority, an arm of the United Nations. The Centre was built to United Nations specifications and its facilities and services rival the best.
It was constructed by the UDC in the record time of 12 months in time to host the International Seabed Authority beginning in 1983, in the process, winning the Governor General’s Award.
The Complex houses the Centre, Secretariat Building and a 450 bay multi-storey parking garage.
