The restoration will be managed by Genesis Electrical, a Virgin Islands business, and will include repairing and replacing 50 damaged lights with high-speed LED hardwired light fixtures. “Replacing the boardwalk lights is just another way we are helping with the improvements and revitalization of the downtown Christiansted area.”
“In 2017 two storms, Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria, blew through the US Virgin Islands causing significant damage,” stated Andrew Dubuque, Principal and CFO of Caravelle Hotel & Casino. As a sign of good faith and commitment to revitalizing Christiansted, Caravelle will also be donating payment for future electrical costs associated with the boardwalk lights. The $130,000 boardwalk light restoration project began and has been completed.
