Fascinating, I didn't know that. Do you have a reference?
As far as I'm aware,Shah Jihan originally planned to built a black marble replica on the opposite side of the river. This did not occur due to the cost and being deposed by his son Aurangzeb (1658)
Addendum: after doing some digging,it seems the notion of a real black Taj may be myth.
