On November 17, President Martelly was present at the first major construction in the historic district of Port-au-Prince to inaugurate the Convention and Documentation Centre of the Bank of the Republic of Haiti (BRH) located at the corner of Paved streets and Quai. It also gave him an opportunity to pay tribute to a monument 'Memorial Victory', dedicated to the 14 employees of the bank who died in the 2010 earthquake. The monument is the last work of the great Haitian sculptor Ludovic Booz. The building has been built at a cost of $14.5 million as per earthquake and para cyclonic norms. It consists an administrative area, a multi-purpose exhibition space (900 square meters), two control rooms for simultaneous translation, five office space on the rue Pavée, four meeting rooms, a lobby (380 square meters), a foyer (300 square meters), one documentation area, a restaurant with capacity for 125 people and an artists' dressing room for musical and theatrical performance. The Head of the State invited other institutions to follow the example of the BRH. The center has been built to facilitate the revival of the historical center of Port-au-Prince.
