The Railway Courtyard Project: A Story of Renewal and Cultural Revival
Located at the heart of Lamaha and High Streets, the Railway Courtyard is set to transform into one of Georgetown’s most captivating public spaces. This ambitious project, spearheaded by President Dr. Irfaan Ali, aims to blend history, wellness, and cultural renewal, creating an immersive experience for visitors. By combining extensive research with cutting-edge design, the courtyard will become a living testament to Guyana’s rich heritage, spanning from pre-independence to modern nationhood.
Designed with families in mind, the courtyard promises to be a safe and inclusive environment, particularly for women and children. The project is part of a larger tourism pedestrian circuit envisioned for Georgetown, which will weave together cultural hotspots, historic landmarks, and scenic vistas. As President Ali aptly put it, ‘we are creating that entire walkway, working with the King’s Foundation,’ to create an uninterrupted cultural corridor that showcases Guyana’s unique character.
