Construction on the quadrangle was directed by colonial architect Edmund Thomas. The time of thw construction heavily influenced the architectural design of the building. The iconic building exemplifies the neo-gothic style of architecture, through its use of spiked towers, flying buttresses, pointed archways and highly intricate style of the gargoyle statues. The neo-gothic style of the quadrangle resulted from the public’s enthusiasm for the Middle Ages, Medieval arts and the new aesthetic quality referred to as ‘picturesque.’ ‘Influenced by Medieval architecture, symmetry was dropped and the quadrangle was adorned with vertical framing and highly decorated corner gables’ (Maison, 2015).
