1885 was a busy year in architecture. It saw important events and the opening or start of many new buildings around the world. Architects tried out different styles and new building methods, using materials like iron, steel, and concrete. The year produced churches, schools, stations, and offices that showed how late 19th‑century design blended decoration with practical construction.
