The Quaid-e-Azam House is located on the crossing of Shahra e Faisal and Fatima Jinnah Road, Karachi. It was designed by British architect Moses Somake as was initially referred to as the Flagstaff House before turning into Quaid-e-Azam House. Muhammad Ali Jinnah purchased the house in 1943 and used it as his personal residence.
