Yes, it is half completed. They have set an ambitious completion date of around August of this year.

I wish I could help you out Cantrini. But alas, I currently live in the Great White North myself. I wanted to snap some pictures the last time I was down there in December, but my camera would not coorporate.

I'll see what I can arrange however, maybe I can bug my family to get some pictures taken.

Sure thing, I'm situated somewhere just east of Tdot (Toronto). Everyday on my way to work, I make comparisons in my mind between the condos and offices I pass in North York and downtown Port of Spain (LOL).

Good to know that a fellow Trini is in the area Cantrini. Even though we love the development that is happening around us and back home, Durham is laid back enough to give us a mix of the city and country life that we can appreciate. Peace.

National Academy for the Performing Arts, North

The majestic National Academy for the Performing Arts (North Campus), positioned in the heart of the nation's capital, Port of Spain, will be a permanent home for the development of talent in the performing arts, with particular focus on our national instrument, the steel pan.

The architectural design is reminiscent of the national flower of Trinidad and Tobago, the Chaconia. At its highest point, the grand, modern building will rise up to 100 feet enhancing the state-of-the-art acoustics and offering an inspirational setting for the enjoyment and training of the performance arts.

The Port of Spain National Academy for the Performing Arts will play a pivotal role in the Government of Trinidad and Tobago's multifaceted national plan for development. A performance and teaching academy, the Port of Spain National Academy for the Performing Arts will feature a vast array of open vistas for the enjoyment of the performance arts as well as contemporary classrooms, teaching halls and other practice spaces for the cultivation of the performance artistes of tomorrow.

The 429,093 sq. ft. facility will feature:

A 1500 seat acoustically designed performance hall;

Two practice halls;

Teaching rooms;

State of the art lighting and sound features;

Stages designed to showcase pannists and other performance artistes;

A hotel (for visiting performers);

Parking; and

Landscaped surroundings including seating areas, water features and greenery.

The Port of Spain National Academy for the Performing Arts is one of two such facilities to be built as part of a Government to Government, 2% concessional loan from the People's Republic of China to the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.
