Mumbai is our financial capital and it should atleast be on par with all international cities, we are 5th largest economy but still poor, countries with smaller economies have better cities etc. Look at NYC, Dubai, Singapore, Taipei, Kualalampur, Jakarta, these all are infrastructure and sky scraper hubs. It gives the economy a boost else what is your financial capital worth for? Dubai is the financial capital of UAE, coz it earns the most for UAE, It earns through trade and tourism a lot. Mumbai earns a lot from Trade but no one wants to come to Mumbai as it is not that beautiful. Atleast 1 city man! Every country has its Capital and Financial capital well developed atleast, but we don’t have any of these either, neither our Capital is developed nor our Financial capital, theres pollution, garbage, slums, ugly looking buildings, over population.
Trust me if we make Mumbai like Shanghai it will alone increase Maharashtr’s GDP by 3 fold to a 1+ Trillion dollar economy, yes just making Mumbai a tourism and infrastructure hub alone can do that. Similarly do the same with Bangalore as it doesn’t have Skyscrapers or high rises, or good infrastructure. It doesn’t look or feel like an international city. Skyscrapers in Delhi isn’t possible. Hyderabad should be developed like this, Developing our major cities would add up extra trillion dollars alone and thats what China and USA did!!! What does USA export? What does USA Manufacture on its own except Weapons? Tourism and Trade can make us achieve it. And we should do it.
Many argue that sky scrapers aren’t necessary, basic facilities are priority, like good roads, healthcare, education etc, but that requires money and you need to earn before you spend.
I’m not joking if India Tower would have completed then Mumbai would have earned a lot lot lot!
Skyscrapers boost tourism, investment, economy, global perception, and somehow trade also.
Mumbai had so many 400mtr plus towers planned but Airport Authority of Indian made every tower cut height below it. Many towers which were in constructed got stuck which ever height they had reached. Few reached 300 mtr plus height many cut down below even 300 mtr.
One tower is stuck since last 8-10 yrs now pending approval for further construction.
Ya'll Nibbiars many of the Supertall Skyscrapers height was chopped or else mumbai would have suppressed Dubai.Also Environment is in danger gang do drama if there is any development project. Few of my friends from Mumbai were saying there was a Metro Project going on so the authorities had to cut trees but then Environment gang of Bollywoodia came and did drama. While they were silent when same trees from same place are cut to make furniture for those same muh environment loving people. Many so called Hypocrite Environment activists like these also are road blocks in path of development of Mumbai. Even in small town they do drama. For example last year Municipality was making new drains and then this one Environment gang came and protested that by creating new drains fish die in the river result for the first time in history of my town we had flood in some part of my town lmao because project was stopped.
