INSIDE GRENADA FEBRUARY 11, 2008 NBA star Brian Grant, formerly with the Miami Heat, took time out last week to shoot some hoops with a group of young Grenadians at the newly refurbished River Road basketball court. After a great career in basketball, playing for teams including the Los Angeles Lakers, Portland Blazers and Phoenix Suns, Grant retired from the game in 2006. As a personal friend of one of the investors in the company undertaking the luxury development at Hog Island and Mount Hartman, Four Seasons Private Residences Grenada, he is planning to buy a property and is on a visit to Grenada to learn more about the beautiful location. Grant was welcomed by The Hon. Brenda Hood, Minister of Works, who was representing her own Ministry and the Ministry of Sport, as The Hon. Roland Bhola, Minister of Sport, was detained in Barbados. The Minister enjoyed watching as Grant gave an informal training session to a group of keen girls and boys from the local area, finishing up by giving them all signed photographs. Grant was interested and pleased to learn how popular basketball is in Grenada, and that there is currently an Inter-School basketball competition being played, with a total of 18 schools taking part. Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts has been a pioneer in branded, resort residences since 1982. Today, with the movement to luxury branded residences firmly established, Four Seasons remains an innovative leader, providing a portfolio of residences in the most desirable locations throughout the world, with Grenada becoming one of its newest. Cinnamon 88 Grenada Ltd will be partnering with Four Seasons to create a unique development on Hog Island and Mount Hartman, including an exclusive Resort Hotel with a 30,000sq ft Spa, a tennis academy and an 18 hole championship golf course; luxury residential villas on both mainland and island; a marine park and marina, water sports centre and sailing school.
