Karachi's colonial history is being preserved with state funded heritage conservation projects.

Its indigenous history (whatever is left of it) is being demolished and paved over by projects like Bahria Town, ICON Tower, and the Lyari & Malir Expressways.

Meanwhile in Karachi, modernity has re-written the identity of the city so completely that people identify its history with colonial markets and buildings like Saddar and Frere Hall, instead of Lyari and Malir which are as old as the Indus Valley.

Growing up in Lahore, I could feel the city's historical roots in the physical environment around me. In the nehr I drove past every morning going to school, in the giant trees in Lawrence garden, and even in traditions like Basant.
