Built around the time of the French Revolution, this Fort is placed above where the old Culmer family homestead still exists.
My father grew up around this area and would collect pigeon chicks nestled in the crevasses of the nearby water tower to sell to fanciers. Even though they were separated by centuries, the fort resembles the Brutalist-style bunkers of the paranoid Soviet Albanian republic that were aimed at the Ionian Sea, between Italy and the Iron Curtain. Forts aren’t just a defense against invaders, they also serve as a defense against new ideas.

This rare exposed quarry stone building dates back to the 1780’s and has served many purposes. Among them, a residence, bakery, and most recently, a law firm.
Sadly this ruin, probably dating back to the colonial era, was raised to create more parking space on Cumberland street. It was behind a large residence that may have served as a hotel, law firm or some other prominent use due to its location. In the foreground, there appears to be a well or cistern for water.
This downtown building sat abandoned for many years before it fell apart or was partially demolished. I was very lucky to catch this fleeting state of beauty.
A ruin across the street from the ocean in San Souci. In it’s day, it must have been a glorious little house. I spent so much time coming back here at different times of day in order to get the right light, this was the only photo that made the grade.
Situated across the street from the Central Bank of The Bahamas, Norfolk House carries with it a lot of historical significance to downtown Nassau. At one point I believe it used to serve as a hotel but now it contains many entities including the authority that regulates the annual Junkanoo parade.
This place served as a vacation home for the Marley family in the mid 1970’s.
Many migrants occupy this area, either in the ruins of the estate or in the bushes nearby. I was walking my dog in this area and suddenly a government bus pulled up aside and the driver asked if I was a Bahamian citizen. Strangely, all it took for this man to drive away was for me to say yes.
The alleyway next to the old Marley family vacation home, now a resort.
