Port of Spain - Independence Square

Independence Square is actually the extra wide median strip of the street which runs between King's Wharf on the cruise port and the Roman Catholic Cathedral. Now set with interlocking brick, benches, trees and artwork, the square has become a lively center. Many flanking older buildings are brightly painted sporting eating spots. Some attractive modern buildings are recent additions to this strip.

The square is also named the Brian Lara Promenade after Trinidad's most famous cricketer.
