81 floors: Mumbai on a new high

India’s "Tallest" Residential Tower To Come Up On 2-Acre Plot At Tardeo

Times epaper

Quote:

A congested corner of Tardeo, just behind Bhatia Hospital, will be home to what has been described as India’s tallest residential tower. Construction is to start in three months.

The proposed 81-storey Shreepati Skies will come up on a two-acre plot, which is currently occupied by about a dozen low-rise residential cessed buildings built over a century ago. Today, the area is popularly called old Chikalwadi.

After construction is completed in 2013, the tower will be 301 metres high, surpassing the twin towers in Tardeo’s MP Mill Compound (Imperial Towers), each of which stands at around 265 metres and 60 storeys.

The developer, Shreepati Group, is taking advantage of Development Control Rule 33(7), which offers a floor space index of 4 for rehousing existing tenants in new buildings on a portion of this land. The developer will use the remainder of the plot to set up the tower and sell the property in the open market.TOI has learnt the project cost has been pegged at Rs 500 crore. The developer has already received the consent of 70% of the tenants to redevelop the property.

The project to was until recently embroiled in litigation after some tenants approached Bombay High Court against the redevelopment. But the court has now given the green light to the project. The Shreepati Group has also constructed the 45-floor Shreepati Arcade, which is currently the tallest occupied residential building in the country.

The Chikalwadi project has already received civil aviation and environmental clearances. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has given preliminary approval for construction up to 60 floors in the first phase. The developer will have to reinstate the existing 550 tenant families in 300 square feet tenements each in new buildings. Of these, 240 tenements will be handed over free of cost.

***IndiansUnite*** · December 21st, 2008, 04:53 AM

The initial plan was to build a mall but then DLF split up with its JV partner-Akruti City. After that they rejigged their plans and piggybacked commercial space to the retail space.
