Located on the banks of the Gomti River, the Lucknow Regional Headquarters of the Reserve Bank of India (R.B.I.), sits on a six acre site, with characteristic solidarity of a government institution coupled with a blend of local architecture from the regional context of Lucknow.
The iconic stature of the building is expressed through its strong axial geometry, with 2 rotundas on the North and West side symbolizing defined entry points, while a series of circular free-standing columns along its façade, offering a distinct character of a public building.
