| Building/Structure material and other material used प्रयोग में लाई गई इमारती / संरचनागत सामग्री और अन्य घटक |
The ground floor has been greatly modified for the shops. Almost the entire ground floor seems to have been reconstructed for the shop-fronts. The first floor, however, has retained most of its original character and is constructed in dhajji-dewari where the timber framing has been done using a rectangular frame making it appear aesthetically more sophisticated. Each window is set in between two timber studs. The widows are all semi-circular with partially glazed and paneled shutters. |
