    The document describes the restoration of the Ballard Gatehouse in Mumbai, India. It shows photos of the gatehouse before and after restoration. The restoration brought out delicate facade features that had been damaged by soiling, tar stains, and cement application. It restored arched openings that had been blocked. It also restored the coffered ceiling of the central hall. The landscape setting was also enhanced, replacing an old security wall with a new grill fence and security wall. Exhibits are now arranged to minimize interventions and respect the facade articulation.
