Priority Interventions

  • Explore opportunities for heritage preservation and adaptive reuse of historic buildings.

  • Activate the street through public programming such as cultural events, exhibitions, or street festivals like Chitra Santhe.

  • The majestic area is not always viewed through a lens of historic preservation, but it is one of the oldest fabrics of the city, and there are many stories yet to be unearthed here.

Site context

TCM Royan Road, located near Majestic Railway Station, exhibits a distinct historic character. Amongst the old buildings, two prominent stone buildings from 1953 remain. One currently serves as a shelter for homeless individuals and a government office, while the other functions as a showroom.

Issues

Lack of recognition and activation of historic assets within the street
