Lutyens' Delhi

Lutyens' Delhi is a vast precinct in New Delhi, India, named after the British architect Edwin Lutyens (1869–1944), who was responsible for much of its architectural design and construction. The establishment and development of this imposing precinct occurred during the reign of the British Raj, when India was a colonial possession of the British Empire. Work lasted between the late-1910s and 1930s. This also includes the Lutyens Bungalow Zone (LBZ). The genesis of Lutyens' Delhi paved way for the foundation of New Delhi, which now serves as the capital of India, as is now synonymous with Lutyens' work.
Lutyens designed four bungalows in the Viceroy House Estate, which was rechristened to the Rashtrapati Bhavan Estate following independence; now, these bungalows lie on the Mother Teresa Crescent (then Willingdon Crescent). Lutyens, apart from designing the Viceroy's House, designed large government building and was involved with town planning.
Herbert Baker, who also designed with the Secretariat Buildings (North and South Block), designed bungalows on the then King George's Avenue (south of the Secretariats) for high-ranking officials. Other members of the team of architects were Robert Tor Russell, who built Connaught Place, the Eastern and Western Courts on Janpath, Flagstaff House (now referred to as the Teen Murti House), Willingdon Airfield (now referred to as Safdarjung Airport), Irwin Amphitheatre (renamed Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium) and several government houses, William Henry Nicholls, CG Blomfield, FB Blomfield, Walter Sykes George, Arthur Gordon Shoosmith and Henry Medd.
It is on the 2002 World Monuments Watch list of 100 most endangered sites, composed by the World Monuments Fund, a heritage organization based in New York.
