- Cover photo description:
- Georgetown City Hall is a nineteenth-century Gothic Revival building located on the corner of Regent Street and Avenue of the Republic in Georgetown, Guyana. The building was designed by architect Reverend Ignatius Scoles in 1887, and was completed in June 1889. Georgetown City Hall is often described one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in the Caribbean. Georgetown City Hall currently occupies the status of tentative listing as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is built in timber, possesses three floors and has a rectangular shape. The tower - one of the building's most notable features - is topped by a square, pyramidal, flat-topped spire with wrought-iron crenelations around the perimeter of the spire's apex. The spire is surrounded by conical pillars. The building has a Hammer-beam roof (a feature of Medieval Gothic architecture in England). The building is 27.1 metres long, 17.4 metres wide and 29.3 metres high (from Wikipedia).
