Why George Town

Location, location, location.

Opening a store in Grand Cayman is a significant investment. Our buildings are designed and placed to give retailers the greatest advantage.

01

Location

Each unit has direct visibility on North Church Street, the road between the Royal Watler Cruise Terminal and the Kimpton Hotel. No other development has this number of retail units on that stretch.

02

Visibility

Floor-to-ceiling, impact-rated glazing and 12 ft ceilings make every storefront visible from both the pavement and the road, serving cruise visitors on foot and residents passing by car.

03

Resilience

Hurricane fortified to Miami-Dade County specifications, heavily insulated, and designed by an award-winning Grand Cayman architect, so your business keeps trading season after season.

Make it easy to be a customer

Where the customers already are

It's commonly believed that a good location is the key to attracting customers. The CE Whitney Building and 72 North Church Street shape a retailer's ability to market itself and to meet the competition it faces from other businesses. You must make it easy for a customer to be a customer.

Opening a store in Grand Cayman is a significant investment, so we have developed our properties in the right locations to give you the greatest advantage. Every one of our retail units has direct visibility on the most important street in the Cayman Islands.

No other development has this number of retail units directly on the road between the Royal Watler Cruise Terminal and the Kimpton Hotel.

Lower running costs

Built for a hot climate

The Cayman Islands has a hot climate. In a typical retail building, lighting and air conditioning account for nearly 70% of total energy use, which makes them the best targets for savings.

Both of our buildings are designed to cut energy costs for tenants and the strata: R-30 roof insulation and R-22 concrete walls reduce the energy needed to cool each unit, high-SEER air conditioning lowers cooling costs, LED lighting throughout reduces monthly strata costs, and a light-reflective roof coating limits the heat each building absorbs.
