Brief history of the architectural marvel, Chandigarh<\/strong><\/p>\n

French architect Le Corbusier was employed for making the Master Plan and the Capital buildings and worked from 1951 until his death in 1965 on the construction of the city. The others who helped him were\u00a0 Pierre Jeanneret, Jane Drew, and Maxwell Fry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

The city plan was conceived as post war ‘Garden City’ wherein vertical and high rise buildings were ruled out, keeping in view the socio economic-conditions and living habits of the people.<\/p>\n

Le Corbusier divided the city into different sectors. Each Sector or the neighboured unit, is quite similar to the traditional Indian ‘mohalla’, and measures 800 metres by 1200 metres, covering 250 acres of area. The sector featured a green strip running north to south, bisected by a commercial road running east to west.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
