A pretty colonial hous !!

An almost 100 years old colonial house, in the main development area of the city, needs saving. The owner is trying to get permission to destroy this house and building a high-rise in its place. I have been in love with this house since my childhood. It is the only piece of architecture left in this part of the city from the British era. Its beautiful arches, carvings, aura, scale is pretty enchanting. And it looks even more vintage because of the BW film. I am glad I could photograph a part of the front facade and plan to go back for a full scale documentation.
