Nestled in Mumbai is one of the city’s fast-developing neighbourhoods, Goregaon. The district is renowned for its excellent connectivity and transportation and is home to Aedas’ latest project in Mumbai, India, the NESCO Centre Building II Mixed-use Development.
A vital transportation hub and symbol for the city’s modernity, Goregaon district is acclaimed for its excellent road connections and public transportation networks. The NESCO Centre Building II Mixed-use Development project is part of NESCO Centre, which currently accommodates IT office buildings, the Mumbai Exhibition Centre and the main exhibition venue in the city. The project’s site is owned by NESCO and is engulfed by a large monumental site, a green oasis within Mumbai’s fast-developing and dense urban context.
The design of the project aims to increase greenery, community space, improve the function, aesthetic and quality of all common areas. The design opts to raise office buildings three levels above the low parking podium to cultivate a campus environment while preserving as much openness and greenery as possible.
The elevated design allows space for a newly open and expanded ground floor, which will improve accessibility by functioning as a connective hub linking the various cores and lobbies of the project. Greenscape paved paths between buildings and public spaces will provide complete pedestrian connectivity on the site. NESCO Centre’s intuitive circulation and connectivity grant the site full pedestrian access, thereby establishing it as Mumbai’s lead project for sustainability and environmentally-friendly practices.
The project comprises a 250 room business hotel, common space, an ample food court, a business centre and rooftop fitness facilities. The core and building lobbies are designed to allow tenants to lease space independently.
