PHASE 3 -Redevelopment of Masjid al Haraam The final demolition works on the last third of Masjid al Haraam begins today with the erection of hoarding and removal of electrical and air conditioning fixtures. This will be the last Ottoman architectural heritage in Haraam despite many efforts to salvage it. Ornate carvings pleasant to the eyes with vibrant colors will soon disappear in the name of redevelopment. Fine masonry facade styling using natural colored stones will remain in our memory but not to be witnessed by the future generation on the Islamic engineering and architectural past achievements.
