In a major move, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has announced a redevelopment plan for Lower Parel after acquiring Century Textiles’ defunct mill land. The project aims to construct high-rise residential buildings, fulfilling the long-pending dream of Girni Kamgars (mill workers) to own homes in Mumbai. Tenders have already been floated for the development, marking a significant step in the city’s urban transformation.
