Kothi Hayat Baksh was built for Nawab Saadat Ali Khan, who
was a keen builder and liked European architectural styles.
General Claude Martin built this opulent Kothi for him. The Kothi was
later awarded by the Nawab to Martin as his residence, and came to be
known as Banks House when Major Banks occupied it.
In 1873, when George Cooper was the resident, spacious lawns were created
around the Kothi, and a ballroom was added as late as 1907.
After Independence, Kothi Hayat Baksh became the residence of the
Governor and came to be known as Governor House.
