Lot Essay

VERY RARE. Two health care facilities, the Sir Jamsetjee Jeejeebhoy Hospital and the Grant Medical College, both designed by unknown architects, were Bombay's first experiments with the neo-Gothic style. The hospital opened in 1846, although it began in 1834 as a dispensary. The original hospital is now demolished, and the Grant Medical College is in a state of serious disrepair.
