Today it houses the Admirals Inn. A waterway between the massive greenstone pillars was used for hoisting sails from boats through a trap door in the sail loft floor. The building has been roofless since a hurricane in 1871. Above was the pay Office and on the south side the Commissioner's Room. Below were stores.
Today there are three shops in the building.
Seamen were fed here when their ships were being careened. Today the building is a boutique and restaurant. Peterson over an argument of seniority. A fiddler would play on a capstan top to put heart into the jolly tars hauling down the masts of their ship. Today, yachtsmen congregate around them on Christmas Day to celebrate with champagne.
