This project, just like Urmi Estate in Lower Parel by the same builder (Enpar Group) is quietly being built without much fanfare. Here are the only details we have:

At Madhusudan Mills, Kamlesh Mehta of Gowani Builders has been allowed to develop 27,500 sq m of the 80,785-sq-m plot. The developer has already given the BMC a proposal for building an IT park, a residential complex, service apartments and a hotel.
Source (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/ntc-to-give-some-take-some/576864/)

So 34% of the mill is under development at the moment. The rest 66% will be auctioned off in NTC's next phase of mill auctioning.

CG and Savz, thanks for the pics. Could this be Lotus Complex?

On BE Billimoria's website (http://www.bebanco.com/ongoing-projects-residential.html#Lotus-Complex):

Lotus Complex
at Lower Parel, Mumbai. 2 residential towers with 34 floors, 1 commercial building with 17 floors & 1 service apartment with 38 floors having 2 basement, ground + 7 Podium in all 4 buildings

So that's--> 2 x 41fl + 24fl + 45fl

RMJM seems to have designed this project. Some info from this dude's LinkedIn profile (http://ae.linkedin.com/pub/larry-mcguinness-pr-eng/14/518/9ab):

RMJM - Senior Structural Engineer
Role on Project: Structural Team Leader
Project: Lotus Complex, Mumbai

The lotus complex is a mixed use development in central Mumbai that comprises 2 x 38 storey residential towers, 1 x 50 storey serviced apartment tower and 1 x 20 storey commercial tower. All the towers are connected with a 5 storey mixed use podium with parking and terraced villas. The client was based in Mumbai and this added complexity to communication, expectations and client approvals.

This project will be a cluster of it's own. And other cluster projects like World Place, DLF are also in the vicinity!

Today.

The project U/C in madhusudan mills besides world one site

IU - Comparing notes with your digout on the LinkedIn profile of the Project Engineer at the site.

This is what he's quoting about the project on his profile (http://ae.linkedin.com/pub/larry-mcguinness-pr-eng/14/518/9ab):

Privately Held; 501-1000 employees; Architecture & Planning industry
September 2009 – Present (2 years 6 months)

Role on Project: Structural Team Leader
Project: Lotus Complex, Mumbai

The lotus complex is a mixed use development in central Mumbai that comprises 2 x 38 storey residential towers, 1 x 50 storey serviced apartment tower and 1 x 20 storey commercial tower. All the towers are connected with a 5 storey mixed use podium with parking and terraced villas. The client was based in Mumbai and this added complexity to communication, expectations and client approvals.
Role and Responsibilities:


Was speculating whether this info is fresh or stale.

It's most probably what RMJM was initially working on.

We're going with what the civil contractor has on their website (see post#5) since they would be the ones with the most updated tower development plan.

This is the 24 storey commercial tower:

Awesome!!....Suits the name. It would definitely look good with the skyline if it is visible..

16 storeys more likely than 24. The podium is only 4 floors.

Nice!!! bears Semblance to Delhi's lotus temple perhaps(both being lotus after all )? Just the open petals are missing!!

These lotuses always remain in the dark, hence they don't bloom.

seeing the curve on floor plate in the pic, it looks like the render is not being followed completely.

World one is gona completely dwarf this one

Big thanks to Jai for fishing out the design of the complex. This was uploaded 2 days ago by a senior RMJM architect on Behance (http://www.behance.net/gallery/Lotus-Complex-Mumbai/4514679).

The tallest tower and twin towers are residential. The smallest one that is connected to the tallest is the commercial tower:

Office Tower and drop-off access.

Currently the twin towers are U/C while google maps/earth reveals that site prep has been carried out for the tallest resi tower + commercial tower. The render that I found earlier is either an old design of the commercial tower or a completely different project all together.

I really like this design....

Absolutely LOVE the design! Hope this comes up without any hitches.

Awesome! M in Mumbai but been busy surely next time will get some updates.

Looks Fugly. Sorry, that's just my opinion. :(

^^ The commercial building looks disgusting IMO, but the tall one looks nice I think...

^^

Even the two residential towers (smaller ones to the left) I think in the render.

Agree, but with a tiny bit of tweekng (i.e: colour schemes and making it a bit simpler), the smaller towers could come out OK.

On the plus point, atleast they arent just plain concrete blocks.

^^+1.....Thats the reason why its not ulgy...I don't see any bare concrete blocks. Its a creative design. Next gen.

This style facade and buildings are becoming popular. I've seen a few similar buildings around the world.

I don't mind the design, it's different from the other buildings around. These boxy buildings will contrast to the curvy World Place towers next door.

The design looks like Urbana, Kolkata.

It is certainly something different!

How does that wavy structure fit in with the renders?

The twin residential towers look wavy in renders though not very sure !!

I'm starting to think this is not the same as in the render.......I too thought, the twin structures kinda looked wavy, but now I realize all these tower are boxy.

Savz, you are on a streak today.....I'm trying to figure out how these buildings will look like. Cuz none of the renders seem to match this. I know it will be fully glass clad judging from the the pictures. Man, if it is, it might look really good with those curves in the middle.

Nice progress..Thanks for the visual treat Savz bhai...:0

Comparing the Lotus complex that i took snaps of a few days back and the renders on the right, doesn't it look like the building is taking shape of the renders in foreground?

http://s19.postimage.org/tldn3tajn/madhusudan_uc_vs_finalrenders.jpg

Yes savz thats the correct render of lotus complex and great find again :cheers2:
The website says 32 storied twin resi towers but in the render it is 40 floors !!

Alright, finally the right render!!...SOMEONE NEEDS TO UPDATE THE FIRST POST in the thread with these renders.

Final Renders

Ah, now that is the official render. Thanks for the updates Savz.

Actually the first render in this thread is for the smallest building in the above picture with four buildings. Anyone noticed that?. Look how small that building is compared to the U/C twins.

^^ true.

also, is this the first u/c project with office building taller than residential buildings?
