Bhendi Bazaar Redevelopment Project
As the port of Bombay flourished under British rule, numerous traders and merchants from diverse communities came to establish trading markets. A multitude of migrant workers and laborers came with them, settling near the docks. The traders and migrants built residential quarters, with shops on the ground floor and residential tenements on the upper floors.
Bhendi Bazaar, in the C Ward of Mumbai, abutting the J.J. Flyover and home to the Dawoodi Bohra community, is one such area. Today, Bhendi Bazaar is one of the most congested parts of Mumbai, with densely populated buildings, narrow streets bustling with activity, a lack of open spaces, and outdated urban infrastructure.
The aim was to transform Bhendi Bazaar into a vibrant residential and commercial space with modern civic amenities and open spaces.
project comprising of 16.5 acres of landform has approx. 250 existing buildings, 1250 shops and 3200 families.
