From being one of the most crime prone areas to becoming the industrial hub, Amraiwadi has seen quite a transformation. Amraiwadi is situated in the eastern segment of Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Over the years, the area has historically developed as an industrial belt due to the emergence of cotton textile mills and other small scale industries. With the growing developments around the area and the need to accelerate the pace of industrialization in Gujarat, the Gujarat Industrial Development Act of 1962 came into force and since then, Amraiwadi saw a huge transformation with industrial changes, transport, residential and commercial infrastructure development. The  project focuses on the impact of Industrialisation and it's effects on choices of housing and transport.
