17 families, 1 house
The ‘Committee Chawl’ which houses 17 families in one structure – all the 17 families are, or were, associated with the Khotachiwadi cricket club. The interior of this chawl, by the way, is a striking example of efficient usage of space and good design.

Sun n’ Shade
This building (Gresham Life) is on Sir Pherozeshah Mehta Rd, opposite the Mint. The sun behind the building shrouds it in near-darkness.
High, higher, highest
St Thomas Cathedral, in Fort in Bombay. The cathedral towers over the surroundings till it comes up against the blue sky.
