The Basseterre Valley was occupied in 1627 by the French and populated. Now, Basseterre has suburbs such as Greenlands, Bird Rock, Taylor's Range and others. The valley has a harbour called Port Zante. It is reclaimed land from the sea. Port Zante is undergoing construction to become a state-of-the-art port facility, with duty-free shopping malls, restaurants, and maybe a hotel.
