Are Luxury Homes in Worli a reality? – Vraj Tiara vrajtiara.com
When the Portuguese built their presence in the marshes of an island coast off the Arabian sea, little did they know that the land, once a conquered strip for its strategic naval base known as ‘Bombay,’ would become one of Asia’s busiest cities- Mumbai!
One of the Portuguese’s strategic naval forts built in the 16th century is the Worli Fort. The British later considered the Worli Fort as a strategic naval base to keep an eye on the movement of pirates and enemy ships. This fort is amongst the other two forts, Bandra Fort & Mahim Fort, valued for its strategic importance to the British Navy guarding its western coast. While most of the forts built by the Portuguese and British have now been taken up for restoration, the Worli Fort sits perched at the tip of the rock awaiting its restoration in 2022.
The fast-paced jet setters of today find the iconic Bandra Worli Sea Link the most accessible route to reach south Mumbai and BKC. Worli is the access point for most travelers to south Mumbai or North Mumbai, resulting in the 3 BHK, 4 BHK, and 5 BHK sea-facing apartments being considered premium.
