Hamilton, Bermuda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

quote:

Quoted: “Hamilton history began in 1790 when the Bermuda Government set aside 145 acres (587,000 m²) for the future seat of Bermuda government. Hamilton was officially incorporated in 1793 by an Act of Parliament. The Colony’s capital relocated to Hamilton from St. George’s in 1815. The Town of Hamilton became a City with the erection of the Hamilton Cathedral (Church Of England) in 1897. The City also now has a Catholic cathedral.The city, overlooking Hamilton Harbour is primarily a business district, today, with few structures, other than office buildings and shops.”
