The capital of Montserrat, Plymouth, was destroyed and abandoned in the 1990s because of a volanic eruption. Is there a plan to rebuild the town or build another capital?

Volcano eruptions destroyed Plymouth in the late 1990s. To rebuild Plymouth would be far to expensive for this tiny island nation. The town of Brades is now serving as its current capital. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brades,_Montserrat Jul 27 11, 11:34 PM

As your source also says: "Several names have been suggested for the new capital, which is now being constructed in the Little Bay area. They include Port Diana, in memory of Princess Diana,[2] and St. Patrick's, to commemorate the March 17th uprising and to attract Irish-American tourists." This source also confirms that a new marina and a new capital is to be built in Little Bay. http://ukinmontserrat.fco.gov.uk/en/island-of-montserrat/ Jul 29 11, 3:52 PM
