NASSAU, BAHAMAS — The government intends to address the issue of too many derelict buildings in Downtown Nassau through legislation and other legal means, Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis said yesterday at the official opening of the Margaritaville Resort at The Pointe.
The prime minister said the issue must be addressed if Nassau is to meet its potential.

“There are too many derelict buildings in the city center,” said Minnis. “They are eyesores. While some of the old buildings can be refurbished, many have to be demolished.”
