Belmont
Belmont, in north-east Port of Spain, in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, is located at the foot of the Laventille Hills. It was the city's first suburb and in the 1840s–'50s, parts of the area were settled by Africans rescued by the Royal Navy from illegal slaving ships. In the 1880s–'90s, the population swelled rapidly, and the characteristic Belmont street pattern of narrow, winding lanes developed. Belmont originally had many large homes but a lot have been renovated and converted to business use with some remaining in family hands. It was the birthplace and early home of many important Carnival designers and bandleaders and has approximately 9,035 inhabitants.
