High Court Building, British colonial courthouse in downtown Yangon, Myanmar
The High Court Building stands at 89-124 Pansodan Street, featuring a pale burgundy brick exterior and Renaissance-influenced cream-painted arches across its facade.
Construction of the High Court Building occurred between 1905 and 1911 under architect James Ransome during British colonial rule in Myanmar.
The building incorporates Queen Anne architectural elements with local Myanmar influences, displayed through its towers, loggia windows, and intricate brick patterns.
Located between Maha Bandula Garden Street and Pansodan Street, the former Supreme Court now functions as a local court facility.
The clock tower foundation required special reinforcement with thitya hardwood due to the swampy soil conditions at the construction site.
