Suncity, sorry no pics of Beamonde even on Sheth web page!

Wish I had though as we need an visual up-date to see how things are progressing.

We really need someone to get out there and start snapping photos.

Dunno. But it is the view that some of the Sheth Beaumonde residents will see. Plus the Bandra Worli bridge by the time the last residents move in.

Mumbai really needs to do something about the fishing villages and slums in the Colaba / Cuffe Parade area. Get all the socialist NGOs (who are always protesting) together and give them the task of coming up with a plan to rehabilitate the fishermen in this area itself. Involve the fishermen. Put a deadline of one year to decide on the plan. The funds should come through the JNURM and some of the richer NGOs can open their purses and contribute their dollar donations too. The local MP should give up his funds too. But that is thinking too much I guess. Housing is so expensive in the city that it is ridiculous.

I quite agree Suncity. The fishing village looks more like a slum and with all the improvements going on in Mumbai the residents of the village should be given proper housing. The waterfront of Mumbai around Cuffe Parade/Colaba needs massive improvement. What I always thought that Cuffe Parade could do with a Marina for Yachats and Boats, perhaps a club/hotel which would benefit the area as well as attract tourism.

Yeah, I've been noticing a lot more yachts too. I dont think India has the yacht culture yet.

What i'd like to see in our coastal cities is some beautiful marinas.

A fascinating photo of the Haji Ali skyline... not only are the contrasts amazing, but I never saw this angle before. The Nehru planetarium looks great, as does that other building complex next to it (what is it?). Hopefully when these slums are cleared in a few years time, it will look even better!

The Nehru planetarium looks great, as does that other building complex next to it (what is it?).

Which one?

If you are talking of the Discovery of India Building (the circular tower), the complex next to it with the curved roof is the sports centre u/c.

The Nehru Planetarium is the small dome shaped building. The Science Museum (the spread out building complex in the middle of the slums) and the Planetarium are separated by the slums.

You can also see the Atria Mall (if I am not mistaken).

u see the road leading through the slums and down the worli peninsula towards i thnk worli fort area anyway its the main road in this pic

i was wondering why didtn they have bwsl land at taht end and then just make the road better or go underground/above ground

or did they have it come in the middle of worli promenade so that they can prepare for the future like so they can have the western freeway the one that would go to napense road

thats not the main road, thats pochkhanawala road, pretty cramped up at both ends

the best thing for bwsl would be to join it at mahakali road (which is near worli village). thats a 120 foot road that joins the main a.b. road

or else take it to the end of sea face and join it at lovegrove. sea face again narrows at both ends and will involve rights turns and tight angles. the worli landing is a farce

yeh didnt know what i was thinking
are their more commercial fishers like people that fish as a company i guess
or are they jus independent people that go out like with some companions and return with a whole lotta fish from near by

anyway i have a question does atria have 2 entrances or a sign on the bcak that says atria because if im not mistaken atria is at the left of the road with the flyover(dont know road or flyovers name)

they need to come up with some more modern buildings instead of just tall buildings which look very ugly. Yes skyscraper=power but not if the buildings look like they will fall any second. I preffer small modern building over tall disgusting buildings

Yeah Navi Mumbai coming on well and love the colours of the buildings.

That raod pictured above is Palm Beach Road. The road already looks run down! The lines need re-painting and landscaping of the central reserve and either side needs to be urgently, i.e. more Palm Trees. Construction may be stail going on which is fair enough but this doesn't help the image. May as well call in Old Mumbai.

Cov Boy
January 27th, 2007, 04:20 PM
The 1st phase of the make over should be complete now as it was scheduled to be the end of Jan 2007.

The second phase should start soon with the painting and landscaping of the art deco precinct. I did hear that has been delayed or something because of protests to the bungalows?

Some needs to confirm this and up-load the latest photo's.

Anderi right? A nice suburb that and a great photo opportunity!

That's Oberoi Sky Heights (the tall one) in the first picture towards the left.

Can't see tower two as that is still under construction.

Looks like Anderi has scope for more development and high rises fro the patches of land. But I would still welcome more green spaces and small parks for the people and childern to play in such a congested city.

whoever took this photo should be thanked a lot :banana:

this is a rather interesting picture of bandra and it highlights a rather upper middle class area of bandra

the back of the first tall building u see with the alternating terraces is Chand Terraces some 20 floors, it was one Bandras tallest buildings behind it (not seen as its blocked by building) is Holy Family Hospital and opposite that is where Chunkey Pandey lives.

in the background yuo can see either Vignetta or a building on Hill Rd im not sure it looks to be some 20 stories high as well

but its like worse in the suburbs

like the rick drivers have the signals timed so they no that when it turns red theres like a 2 sec delay before the other traffic starts so they jus speed

and it doesnt help that some of the other traffic's rickshaws like no when the signal is gonna turn green and start before it does

Hi

Just to be clear, those aren't my photos, but of nervi14 on webshots. He had a lot of postable photographs which I felt warranted a new thread. However, I did stitch together photographs to make panos when I could

The u/c tower center is The Legend
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/9391/thelegend269f6637or7.jpg

The u/c tower barely peeking out to the back, left side of Legend, I think is Soham Apartments
http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/3628/sohambldlarge6a11cf0xl4.jpg

I'm not sure what building is the one being built in the foreground, in front of the Legend

The best photos of Mumbai ive seen and thanks for super sizing them also.

I like the yachts in the first pics of Cuffe Parade (CP) and I do think a jetty and marina should be built at CP since there any many yachts anchored around there.

Thanks for the pic of Soham Apartments as I wondered what that building being constructed is behind the Legend tower. Oh by the way that building in the front is getting a paint job/repairs so its not a new building but an older one.

If only the buildings in Mumbai were to be painted it would change the face of Mumbai totally!!!

February 18th, 2007, 08:08 PM
Well, in the Marine Drive (oorah) photo, (especially in the uncropped, unresized panos) you can see lots of the buildings there undergoing repainting/restoration. I think the 2nd phase of Marine Drive involves refurbishing those art deco buildings, in any case

New towers coming up as seen above.

Can anyone shed light on those towers under contruction. I know I Imperial Towers is one of them.

I like the first picture. What a difference line markings make in the city. Those building before CST and Muncipal Corp. looking good conidition too. Only wish they start the restoration of CST/VT.

There are two on the left of Shreepati and three from the right of Imperial.

Why can't they have the missing trees replanted while they did the renovation on Marine Drive. At least if would have given a uniform look ... and some shade. Maybe they could have planted Gulmohar ... I remember seeing Gulmohar in full bloom in Kamla Nehru park; they look very pretty. Just posting some pics I took.

These are some shots taken by this guy from Worli Fort. This area in my opinion has tremendous potential for some amazing skyline shots, and can well become a perfect tourist attraction, once it is rennovated and the skyline grows by 2-3 years.

Perhaps our Mumbai members can take photos of the skyline from this location?

I agree with Luckystreak about Marine Drive. The renovation as made a great difference to the shabby condition it was before but palm trees, plants, flowers, sun shades, benches etc should have been put up along the stretch. Perhaps phase two will see this change????

around 4.5-6 kms, not sure

its already starting to wear an old, tired look thanks to the great indian tradition of paan spitting. the light coloured tiling and granite only makes it look worse

paan spitting should attract a huge fine or jail sentence imo. but then half the country would be in

Thanks Bombay Boy:)

Regarding pan spitting it is tough to change an age old tradition :(
Kerala has supposedly banned spitting and blowing nose in public but dunno how many are aware of such a law. The bottomline is they should reach the masses and mass campaigns towards building up awareness alone can help.

Surprisingly I dont see a lot of Glass in the new constructions . They seem to be more of the traditional style of complete concrete cover (or) maybe its too early to comment. I would like a hoard of tall glass buildings lining the
queens necklace. But thats just me.

Mahratta
February 25th, 2007, 04:18 PM
I agree, monyaam, Mumbai, and India, needs to build more glass buildings, especially in highrises/supertalls, as I have seen many glass midrises but not too many all-glass highrises. It will come with time, I hope, to make an even better India.

Here's a comparison of the 2 panos. They are taken from a slightly different location, but the part of the skyline in question is located between the two purple lines

http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/6977/81727136va8.jpg

Mumbai CBD re-development should be approx. located in the center, rear between the two purple lines, so in another 5 years, there will be another cluster.

My first thought was that it was Rushabh Towers, considering the height and the color of the paint.......and also the location. But yes, this could be the Sarvauday Heights/Nahar Seth apartments, and from the looks of it....they have topped out and are heightwise at par with Kalpataru and Belvedere.

RNA Mirage near passport office Worli and Orbit Heights are two buildings that should be towering by now.....especially Mirage since it's gonna be ready for occupation by July/August 2007.

Other tall buildings which are being kept under wraps and yet are supposedly progressing fast are two projects by Raheja in the Worli/Haji Ali/Parel area. They too should be up on the horizon anytime now.

Yes, SD Towers (Imperial Towers) are located in Tardeo.

We need to identify this building and soon. How can a tall building like that escape our radars. Its to far in the photo to make out which dont help. I dont think its Rushabh as that tower is more near Chowpatty Beach/Marine Drive side of the city.


Of course my question is what are those two mystery towers? Chattan? Reliance? Ispat?

No one knows...need a reliable source.

But yes, this could be the Sarvauday Heights/Nahar Seth apartments, and from the looks of it

No, it cannot be the Sarvoday Heights because that is in Mulund I believe.

I am quoting the name picked up from Hafeez Contractor's website. It could either be Nahar apartments or Heights for all we care. But the rendering and color scheme do match perfectly. So, name I am not sure of, but the project I am pretty sure of. http://www.hafeezcontractor.com/housing/apart-resi/sarvoday/sarvoday-frame.html#

Well we will have to wait to get some confirmation.

BTW the Nahar/Sarvoday twin tower plan has changed from the one shown in HC's site. The new one has two towers of different heights.

Hmmm....have newer renderings been posted on this forum. Anyways I am glad that 150 mts is the new 100 mts in town. Only in the last 2 yrs we have seen a jump of 50 mts or so on an average. I guess, taller corporate towers will follow now sooner than later.

There are some older tall buildings in Mumbai that look awful with those air con fans stuck outside the buildin which ends up making the building look ugly indeed and messy.

has anybody posted any 3d models using sketchup on google earth

there are a few:
BEST colony building (maybe a building in the same area)
Ashok Towers
ITC Grand Central
Worlie TV tower
Kalpaturu Heights
Sheerpati Arcade
Air India Building
Hilton Towers
Bombay Stock Exchange
Gateway Of India

Most of these IF not ALL were modeled by our very own NagaSolidus:
sry i didnt realize this until i was well into the list- i did not try to steal credit or anything just making a list, definately a check out.
you did a good job with 3d sketchup, keep up the good work.

i have seen soo many other ones like this in mumbai, they didn't get taken down

and i have seen guys in similar poses modeling underwear on bill boards sometimes with no pants on

I dont think it would have.

Its not like her underwear is any different from the stuff girls wear on beaches, even in India.
