George
Town City Hall, Guyana
The construction
of The Georgetown City Hall was completed in 1889.
Its architecture is described as Danube Gothic in
timber, largely due to its stylized tower, with wrought-iron
crenellations at the very apex.
The Hall is open to the public, and the once-handsome
concert hall, on the third floor, is a curious sight
to behold. It is now the temporary home of the Department
of Environment and Health, whose own building was
pulled down recently after being judged to be unsafe.
