                    Introducing the city of Port of Spain & Its General Elements

                                   

                                                           

This is my beautiful country of Trinidad and Tobago. The picture above is an image of our city of Port of Spain taken from afar. It is the considered to be our major Central Business District which is also located in close proximity to one of our major source of income , OUR PORT !  . This is signified by the numerous boats in the background.
Trinidad and Tobago is considered to be a third world country. ( I don't like using this term) Due to its location in the Caribbean, it is known for having a multicultural society stemming from the long tumultuous colonial past. While walking through Port of Spain one can see our cultural heritage in full display and has become increasingly important in the shaping of cities.
As we are developing as all cities do , the city is influenced by architecture, political and historical influence and the geographical landscape.

Look at those tall buildings in the distance ... It may not be much , however, it is a great indicator of development , you know ? those glass buildings !
It can be said that the city fits not only one but three theories of development such as the Multiple Nuclei and Hoyt's Sector Model and Burgess Concentric Zone Model we can see that land uses are sectioned off such as high residential areas are in places such as Cascade and Middlle/Lower income housing are areas such as Laventille, Beetham etc.  There are alot of green spaces such as the Queen's Park Savannah & the Oval and most importantly the Botanical Gardens ..How cool is that ! A garden within the city !
