Hi ,
I am #Rehan, We went for a ride from Mohammadpur Jeneva camp to Bangladesh Parlamenmt in bangla which is called Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban.
Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban seat of the national parliament of Bangladesh. The Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban complex is located at the heartland of Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, a township of Dhaka city. Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban is internationally considered as an architectural masterpiece. Its planner and architect is the world famed American citizen Luis I Kahn.
Ground Plan, Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban, Dhaka, 1962
He came to prominence after designing Richards Medical Laboratories, Philadelphia. His other distinctive works include Philips Exeter Academy Library, Bryn Mawr Dormitories, Yale Art Gallery, Salk Institute, Kimble Art Museum, Management Centre at Ahmedabad, India, Family Planning Centre, Nepal etc. His biggest as also the best work is considered to be the Jatiya Sangsad complex. After the death of Luis I Kahn, his junior Henry Wilcot completed the revised design of the complex. Hery M Pambam made the structural design. The building is indeed a marvel of synthesis of ideas and engineering.
The decision to construct Jatiya Sangsad Complex at Dhaka was originally taken in 1959. The then Martial Law Administration planned to build the present Sangsad Bhaban as the second seat of the National Assembly of Pakistan in the proposed second capital area, which was designated as Sher-e-Bangla Nagar. Louis I Kahn was initially selected for designing the Jatiya Sangsad complex. He was not commissioned out-right but was asked to present a preliminary ideas and outline for the complex, and eventually in March 1962 he was formally commissioned for the job. A sprawling area of 208 acres of land to the north of present Manik Mia Avenue was acquired in 1961 for the project of the second capital and the master plan was ready in 1962.
The construction started in 1964 with an initial estimated cost of about $15 million. The construction of the complex along with all services and facilities was completed in 1982 at a revised cost of $32 million. The complex includes the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban, hostels for members of Parliament, ministers and secretaries, hospitality halls and community buildings all linked by roads and walkways and surrounded by attractive gardens and lakes.
