St. George's, Grenada - York House
York House, the old Grenada Parliament building, located on Church Street in St George’s, was destroyed by Hurricane Ivan in September 2004.
It was built in the 1780s in an ornate Georgian Style of architecture. It was originally built as the family residence for Jean de Ponthieu.
It was purchased in 1801 to be the House of Legislature. It was the most prominent civil building in the city, if not in the country.
Grenada is in the process of trying to restore the historic building.
