George Gilbert Scott, my man.
Designed and oversaw the building of 320 buildings in his 66 (👀) year lifetime. With just one assistant.
These were not just any buildings. They included:
- 12 cathedrals
- 37 churches
- 17 abbeys
- 71 villas
- 3 libraries
- 2 prisons
- 4 hospitals
- 1 hotel
Also: a university in Mumbai
Also: the tallest building of the world at that time
What an
incredible legend.
