Army Museum

Notes

The building was originally designed to be an Army museum but was never used for that purpose. It temporarily housed the offices of the Prime Minister, and, for a while, served as the headquarters of the Lebanese University administration.
The design was not carried through in detail by Niemeyer who is said to have only drawn a sketch for it.
The role of engineers Khalil Ferneine and Jean Lymberis is to be determined.
