The map
Laventille occupies the hills immediately east of Port of Spain, the capital of Trinidad and Tobago. Unlike the regular grid of the city centre below, its streets climb and wind across steep slopes, following ridges and gullies so that the road pattern looks crowded and irregular from above, with many short lanes ending against the hillside.
The area holds a significant place in Caribbean culture. Laventille is closely associated with the early development of the steelpan, the instrument that grew out of Trinidad's Carnival traditions in the twentieth century. On the heights above the harbour stand the remains of Fort Picton, an old British fortification with long views over the city.
Seen on paper, the neighbourhoods form a dense web that meets the flatter streets of east Port of Spain along the foot of the hills. A Laventille map poster shows that edge clearly: order below, improvisation above, and the waters of the Gulf of Paria close by to the west.
Roads loop and switch back up the slopes, creating a dense, irregular pattern that stands in sharp contrast to the grid of central Port of Spain.
The old fortification on the heights above the capital marks one of the best vantage points over the harbour and the city spread out below.
Along the foot of the hills, Laventille meets east Port of Spain, and the map shows the change from level, orderly blocks to climbing, winding lanes.

Why Laventille
For people from Laventille and its many diaspora families, the map is a direct link to the hills, the music and the community. It also appeals to anyone who loves steelpan and wants to honour the place where the sound took shape.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line are yours to edit, so the poster can name a street, a panyard or a year. Five styles are available, and the print ships as a matte poster, with an optional wooden frame, from partners in more than 30 countries.
