It is indeed a giant metropolis of over leven million people, with an additional three million in the immediate region. As Bombay has grown over the last few decades, it has developed an astonishing paradox: real estate prices keep soaring, ‘even while physical conditions deteriorate alarmingly, in the early 1960's, as a young architect looking for affordable office space at the southern lend of the city, | realised with dismay that just as one was getting accustomed to the new prices, they climbed ~ and 116 were once again out of reach. Today real estate in Bornbay costs almost twice as much as any other Indian city. The reason for this escalation is not just rising population. The situation here is further compounded by the physical shape of the city. Like many another seaport, Bombay is located on a long and narrow breakwater, protecting the harbour from the open sea. The city centre has coalesced around the point where the boats docked ~ right at the southern end of the breakwater. From this point, the city has grown by leaps ‘and bounds, in a linear north-south pattern, because of the confines of the narrow strip of land on which it is located, Every time the city got more overcrowded, the municipality just ‘extended the city limits further northward. This simple strategy worked right up to World War Il, when the city hhad a population of under 1.5 million people. Later extensions however have extended it further and further, like @ rubber band ready to snap. The huge conglomeration of offices and commercial facilites at the southern end of the system daily trigger off massive flows of northward in the island, 5 already been pre-emp middle income g forced to live wherever payments, in squatter overcrowded slun Bombay 0 920 vine nay Muiciplty Plan ent to al i fowath over the nest 10 Hite coments a0 ihe public, By om, ion fin ners 0 an ws expected 0 ion people by 198 ates nh rat Plan te those entrordnasy In statny ms fe sten, once again thls toundov jan, wt two calles, Find Shirish Patel we Proposed, in essnce, cute sland Bomtay oes 2 Ro the east, opening that would the Nata ot rs nots. enti on acu short, we would be tying to use his ne govt ise to esuctre the cy, taking the opportunity Yo re-arange the scenery.
