Karachi Heritage Under Threat

Heritage Foundation of Pakistan in collaboration with StarLinks PR held a press conference regarding restoration of Karachi’s historic Calcutta House, a portion of which collapsed recently. Architect Yasmeen Lari informed that after extensive studies and structural evaluation of the building, it is clear that  the historic building can be restored. She emphasized that over 500 notified heritage structures in Karachi are under threat of willful demolition, which must not be allowed to occur.
