My first night in Lahore in late 2013 was spent at my brother’s workplace located on the fifth floor of the iconic Arfa Software Technology Park. I was woken up several times by loud ringing of telephones from the room next door.
In the morning, I went to the 17th floor of the building where I was able to get my first panoramic view of the beautiful city of Lahore. Silence in the atmosphere and the soft early morning light made the view even more mesmerising. I also got my first glimpse of the long stretch of Metro bus track in the middle of Ferozepur Road. Before leaving for class at the university, I learned that the Metro headquarter was located on the fifth floor of the Arfa tower and that the ringing of phones during the night was coming from there.
