Within the heart of Georgetown lies a village whose name and history are known by most Guyanese — Albouystown. The stretch of land from La Penitence Market to Cemetery Road is one of the oldest communities in the country. With its frozen-in-time feel Albouystown is authentically Guyanese. Once a picture of fields, trenches and dams. One such canal that became somewhat of a local landmark is the famed ‘Punt Trench Dam’. Today it is known as ‘Independence Boulevard’. Long ago in the colonial ages, similar to many other communities, Albouystown was a land of cane fields. And to transport the cane from place to place, they would use the famous ‘Punt Trenches’ to move cane shipments to manufacture the nation’s sugar.
