Queen's Royal College, Port-of-Spain, Trinidad
The Founder's building at Queen's Royal College, built between 1902 and 1904, has achieved iconic status as one of Trinidad's most important seats of learning. The building's deteriorating condition has prompted the Trinidadian Ministry of Works and Transport to fund the restoration of the building. The intention has been to use this project and the restoration of the President's House nearby to increase the level of conservation skills both at a professional level and within the local construction industry. The design and construction of the building, and the local approach to project management and site supervision, have presented a number of problems which have meant that not all the project objectives have been met so far.
