Till the mid-nineteenth century, public buildings in Mumbai adopted architectural styles popular in Europe. Notable among them were the Neo-Classical and Gothic Revival styles. By the time Frederick W. Stevens started working in Mumbai, in 1869, a new eclectic form was gradually taking shape that incorporated European forms mixed with Indian elements inspired from Hindu and Islamic architecture. This new style came to be known as Indo-Saracenic.
