construction of the Punjab Chief Court, now called the Lahore
High Court, began in 1881. Executed in red brick and Nowshehra
marble it took eight years to complete at a cost of Rs. 321,837.The
building was designed by the British architect Brossington in
the erroneously called indo- Saracenic style. Incorporating
the great range of South Asian architectural traditions, this
style which lasted till independence in 1947, in more accurately
the Muslim South Asian, style. A number of red-brick public
buildings on the Mall demonstrate its popularity during the
hundred years of colonial rule. |
