Roofing work at the Antigua Cruise Port has reached an advanced stage as construction continues on the upland development, with visible progress now transforming the site\u2019s appearance.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Developers say the project has entered a new phase, with bold Caribbean-inspired colours being applied to exterior walls, giving future retail and entertainment spaces a distinct visual identity. The update notes that the addition of colour is helping to define the character and energy of the expanded port area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction teams from LICCOM are continuing to push key milestones forward, including ongoing roofing works across several structures. At the same time, the Day Club pool\u2014expected to be a major attraction within the development\u2014is steadily taking shape.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The upland development forms part of wider efforts led by Global Ports Holding to enhance the visitor experience at the port, positioning it as a more dynamic hub for both cruise passengers and local businesses.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Project stakeholders describe the latest progress as a sign that the next phase of the port\u2019s transformation is coming into focus, with construction moving from structural work toward more visible finishing elements.<\/p>\n
