Frere Hall
Henry Saint Clair Wilkins · Karachi, Pakistan · 1865
Frere Hall combines a nineteenth-century civic building with a landscaped public setting in Karachi. Its stone exterior, arcades and Gothic details establish a distinct silhouette. The hall's continuing cultural role allows the architecture to remain part of everyday urban life while retaining the formal character of its colonial origins. Visiting: General public areas have no standard admission charge; special exhibitions, performances and booking requirements can differ.
