The
Palava city is almost 1/4 of the area of Mumbai island city. Mumabi city’s area
covers 67.7 km2 or 16729 acres, whereas Palava project by Lodha Group spread
across 4000 acres in Dombivali near Mumbai. Palava
is strategically located in the economic triangle of Navi Mumbai, Thane and Dombivli, and is in close proximity to the rapidly expanding business
hubs and the new proposed international airport. The city is just 10 minutes
from Dombivli,20 mins from Navi Mumbai and Thane, 20 minutes from the upcoming
Navi Mumbai international airport, and a short walk from Nilje railway station
on Diva-Panvel line. The area is already seeing major road upgrades such as the
widening of Badlapur Road, infrastructure upgrade around Mhape and other MMRDA
projects in the area.
According
to the 2011 census Mumbai City district has a population of 3,145,966, whereas Palava city is expected to
house over 100,001 families and create approximately 350,000 jobs through its
business district and commercial developments. (Truly land of opportunities)
Over
60% of the total area of Palava is dedicated to open spaces. 25% of Palava will
be parks, playing fields and recreation grounds – 10 times more than currently
available in Mumbai. These will include a 100-acre Central Park like the one in
New York with bicycle and walking tracks, open spaces for picnics, etc. and a
riverfront that stretches 3.5 km long with promenades, cafes, theatres. A
50-acre lakefront and a 2 km long periphery will add to the variety of
