Navigating Mumbai's complexity during this process was challenging, yet it unveiled the city's unique resilience. Mumbai stands as a powerhouse, an asset we cannot afford to overlook. As geographical expansion becomes unfeasible, our focus shifted towards sensitive regeneration and redevelopment. Our approach aimed at crafting an identity for the precinct, fostering a sense of belonging among its people. Restoring green spaces emerged as a crucial endeavor. The introduction of the metro has reshaped Mumbai's connectivity, prompting a significant east-west shift. Understanding Mumbai's penchant for walking, we emphasized creating a pedestrian-friendly precinct, envisioning it as a cornerstone of community interaction. With economic hubs like BKC and Dharavi nearby, our aim was to fashion a vibrant, culturally rich locale, transforming this historic Bandra-Mahim trading route into Mumbai's second gateway.
