What is today BEST Marg was once Ormiston Road that was one of the many hubs of the Hippies visiting #Bombay with the apex at the Rex and Stiffles Hotel, Colaba. Today it houses the Moti International Hotel, a shadow of its past from the swinging 60s and 70s. @mumbaiheritage
Was admiring this image of a train pulling out of VT when I saw a teddy bear attached to the front of the engine! Even today, a teddy bear can be found placed in front of trucks. Said to be a superstition replicating the Figureheads placed at the bow of ships to ‘calm the seas’.

As #Monsoon hits #Mumbai, remembering this snap at Flora Fountain. The building in the back housed the pharmacy Treacher and Co. Replacing it comes up the Mercantile Bank designed in #ArtDeco and built by Shapoorji Pallonji in 1950 which later becomes the #HSBC @mumbaiheritage
#Ramadan Kareem! The Noor Mohammadi hotel completes 100 years which has seen @duttsanjay inventing Chicken Sanju Baba to MF Hussain drawing a rooster for it. Here we see Ustad @ZakirHtabla grabbing a bite. Notice the prices of the items! #Ramzan #Food #Bombay

So special to see this clock. If only it could be found and restored!
On World Photography Day, a very rare photograph. The clock and canopy of the CSMT (Victoria Terminus) which once housed the statue of Queen Victoria. Sculpted by Thomas Earp out of Bath Stone, it was later removed in the 1950s and has been missing ever since @mumbaiheritage

@bawmbe @mumnowandthen @mumbaiheritage Look how many trees we have lost in this photo alone
@mumnowandthen @mumbaiheritage @Khaki_Tours @mybmc @bombaywallah @RidlrMUM @MumbaiMattersz @rajtoday @KishoriPednekar @mid_day @RNTata2000 Thanks. Any old pictures of our Kalbadevi Mandir?
