Wasn't there a drive to remove overhead cables from city roads and streets? Has that effort stalled like all other good initiatives?

There are plenty of highly developed cities that have jungles of overhead cables. I would be surprised if Dhaka were able to get rid of them. Maybe in a few select affluent areas...or perhaps in future expansions like Purbachal if pre-planned as such...but otherwise I doubt overhead cables are going anywhere soon.

I think it is rather crass to build such mid rise/highrise structures on a riverfront. Rather sad that Dhaka Municipal Corporation or RAJUK is clueless about such issues.

tanzirian · August 1st, 2011, 04:08 AM

Ideally, yes, but sadly the riverfront is no longer an affluent or desirable area of town. The buildings in the pic above I consider relatively interesting for the area. Compare for example to the huge commie-block complex going up in Sadarghat.

tislam84 · August 1st, 2011, 05:50 AM

At least I will give that the riverfront is relatively cleaner in this picture.
