An expansive, multi-phase restoration and modernization project at the Embassy of the United States in New Delhi, India, is now officially underway after a formal groundbreaking ceremony. With a master plan developed by WEISS/MANFREDI, the much-anticipated redesign—first unveiled last February—seeks to both preserve and breathe new life into the Edward Durell Stone-designed embassy compound in New Delhi’s Chanakyapuri diplomatic enclave.

Speaking at the event, Hardeep Singh Puri lauded Juster’s contribution to strengthening India-US relations, saying ties were “stronger, more enduring and with greater potential now” as compared to when the envoy had come to India.
