Special Envoy on Reparations and Economic Enfranchisement Trevor Prescod has applauded Government’s decision to transform the Treasury Building into apartments to give more Barbadians the opportunity to live in the capital city.Describing the move as a positive and bold step, he said the Government was “trying to make sure that it reaches out and helps the most vulnerable in this society”.“So whether we put it in the middle of Broad Street or Swan Street, there can be no issue more important than the lives of the people, especially people who build The City of Bridgetown. There is too much absence of our presence in The City of Bridgetown and many other locations across Barbados,” he said during contribution to debate on a resolution to vest the Treasury Building in the Barbados Tourism Investment Inc (BTII).The transformation of the Treasury Building will see not only studio and two-bedroom apartments being made available but also commercial entities and a cultural hub.
