Answer:

evolution of Madras is nothing less than a spectacle. From French, and Dutch to Portuguese and British, each one took a part of it to dwell and develop the town in their own approach.

One such settlement, the British’s East India Company had entered the then Madras and entered a treaty with the native chieftains of the land to choose the site of their choice to settle and trade.

Originally an uninhabited land, Francis Day and his superior Andrew Cogan, who can be considered the founders of Madras, finally zeroed in on this coastal town and began construction of the St George Fort and houses for their residence on 23 April 1640. By the 1646, the settlement had reached 19,000 persons and with the Portuguese and Dutch populations at their forts substantially more. This area became the Fort St. George settlement.

As stipulated by the treaty signed with the Nayak (chieftains), the British and other Christian Europeans were not allowed to decorate the outside of their buildings in any other colour but white. As a result, over time, the area came to be known as ‘White Town’.

While To the north of Fort St. George is the George Town, a bustling commercial area of modern day Chennai. George Town has a history going back to the early years of Fort St George. Earlier, it was called ‘Black Town’, as it was essentially a settlement of dyers and weavers, and called also Chennapattanam by the native settlers.
