Mumbai Heritage: David Sassoon Library

A look at David Sassoon Library and Reading Room
David Sasoon Library, Mumbai, India

Looking on to the Kala Ghoda, on Rampart Row, this Romanesque structure, completed in 1870, is built from the same yellow Malad stone as the rest of the buildings in the row– Elphinstone College, the Army and Navy Building and Watson’s Hotel.

Stay tuned – for next week I look at the second most photgraphed building in India (after the Taj Mahal of course)
