Lloyd's Building, Colombo, Neo-Georgian building in Fort district, Sri Lanka
The five-story Lloyd's Building stands at No. 24 Sir Baron Jayatilaka Mawatha, featuring classical British architectural elements throughout its exterior and interior design.
Constructed in 1908 by Clifford Lake and Company, the structure initially served as the Freudenberg Building before Aitken Spence purchased it and renamed it in 1918.
The building represents the commercial evolution of Colombo Fort district, reflecting the architectural preferences of British colonial administration in early 20th century Ceylon.
The structure currently houses the Employees Provident Fund of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka and underwent a complete renovation before reopening in June 2011.
The building features marble corridors and conference rooms decorated with classical motifs, maintaining its original architectural details from the colonial period.
