This just adds to the fun and excitement being generated on Bay Street. Pompey Square is quickly becoming one of those hangout places and it is really good how we have gotten more restaurants and attractions here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Thompson said the Ministry of Tourism is working with the Downtown Nassau Partnership (DNP) to form an association of downtown Nassau restaurants and clubs. Once established, the association\u2019s work will make Nassau even more vibrant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo that is part of the plan they are working on in order to rejuvenate Bay Street to get more life, especially after hours,\u201d Mr. Thompson said. \u201cSo there will be more for the visitors to do downtown. They are making a start and it is coming on very nicely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tourismtoday.com\/home\/downtown-nassau-revitalization-continues\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to view original web page at www.tourismtoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deputy director general in the Ministry of Tourism Ellison \u201cTommy\u201d Thompson, said new business operations are breathing new life into a city where visitors have been looking for more entertainment options.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":39512,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_10223285771444175_51037792744":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[24,542,33,73],"class_list":["post-39511","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-travel","tag-construction","tag-new-providence","tag-tourism","tag-travel-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39511","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39511"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39511\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39512"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39511"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39511"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39511"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
