Mumbai -- Project News and Developments
I'll parallel SSC's Mumbai developments page here. I won't post previous months news (check there for news going back 2 years), but I will start off say... mid feb?
First lets start off with some Mumbai-mood setting background music. Play this in the backround while you read the thread ;) And a video of Mumbai's rising skyline. Also, check out the following thread for a Rundown of Mumbai's booming development, including a total of 65 skyscraper projects over 40 stories and above: The Bombay *BOOM* -- A Rendering Rundown of u/c Mumbai skyscrapers Most of them concentrated in the area seen in the 2nd youtube video above. (And most of them aren't even tall enough to be seen!) Mumbai's Dharavi and Mill land CBD development will literally quadruple the current building boom by 2009, and double the current allowable FSI will make for both commerical and residential supertalls. -------==--=--==------- Some recent skyline views...

Some project updates
---------==--=--==---------
Remember 45 storey Akruti Lakewoods in Thane? Here's a night rendering: http://img370.imageshack.us/img370/139/58305094te5.jpg ---------==--=--==--------- Regarding Sumer Burhani Park, http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/9...679f234ag5.jpg Here's a view that I don't think was posted before: http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/9...679fed6xa1.jpg Seeing as the 2nd pic is older, it seems that 4-spired, er, thingy became the one-spired convention center seen in the top rendering ---------==--=--==--------- Larger rendering of upcoming Neelkanth Greens, Thane: several buildings of 30 stories each http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/2214/77435079lj8.jpg ---------==--=--==--------- Another rendering of Kalpataru Towers, Kandivali (East) http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/3070/49244012ef6.jpg Does indeed look to be 32 stories ---------==--=--==--------- Nirmal Group's Amethyst, Mulund http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/9478/40628515is1.jpg Looks to be 32-34 stories ---------==--=--==--------- Also, remember that Raheja Excelsior project at Haji Ali? http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/3...orlargeqc9.jpg Looks like it, too, went a great redesign. This one hasn't hit the internet yet, but is taken from a recent photograph of a hoarding in South Mumbai. http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/4702/image6kf7.jpg Counting the floors, I'm going to confirm my estimation of the previous render saying at 45 stories tall. We'll have to wait for a larger rendering to come out to be more certain. http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/295...sgmxfz2.th.jpg -------==--=--==------- Some nice malls by architect Reza Kabul Orchid Mall, Malad http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/8...2f09e49qj9.jpg http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/3...2f0e7d5yc3.jpg Raghuleela Mall, Mumbai http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/3...2f2f1fdty9.jpg http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/3...2f30518dx6.jpg -------==--=--==------- Here is the largest size rendering of Imperial Towers I believe exists on the net. The previous rendering was about 1/2 the size: http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/1268/sdtowrewf3.jpg ^ You can see many details you otherwise couldn't have in the smaller rendering, especially in the roof. However, this is only the 2nd latest of 3 released designs, so it may not reflect the current design, which looks more like this: http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/2...29ef503no3.jpg -------==--=--==------- Cheers, Jai |

"Palais Royale" potential Tallest Tower?
Firstly,
Mumbai's skyscrapers add to civic woes Quote:

I think it is in correct proportion. http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/6827/93199294df2.jpg Vikas Kasliwal of Shree Ram Mills also said this in the video report: Quote:

I can't find the builder, architect or promoter's website. Seeing as this is going to be an 'invitation only' project, just like also u/c Oberoi Skyz, and Reliance Tower, we're probably not going to see any good quality renderings outside brief newsclips until its nearly finished. :( -Jai |
Lodha Developers's New Projects
Lodha Builders has updated their website. Some new projects. Unfortunately, they are small, but are of good quality:

Mumbai Metro Update
http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/1...aptrainih2.jpg
Also, a rendering of a "typical" elevated metro station, from Mumbai Metro website: http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/2953/facilitiesct1.jpg Each metro station will be a combined metro station-retail-hospitality outlet that will be designed and built by private developers. As they vie for passengers and shoppers, expect the competition to be extremely heated, and the architecture of the metro stations themselves to be extremely flashy :) |
Mumbai Airport redevelopment update
