Lalkuthi losing its lustre

Northbrook Hall, also known as Lalkuthi, is a structure of British memories and nostalgia on the banks of Buriganga River. The Indo-Saracenic building in Old Dhaka’s Farashganj is a fusion of Mughal and European Renaissance architectural styles. This notable archaeological site now exists as a relic of the past, locked down in a vulnerable state due to the lack of care and preservation. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi
