BlockLands on Bay Road

NO-ONE seems to perform any PROPER analysis of the 'cumulative' implications resulting from multiple High-Density developments located within 'a stones throw' of each-other?  It seems that no-one has learned from the ill-conceived nightmare that is Docklands!
There are now definite signs that Bay Road (and it's surrounds) is being transformed into a 'mini-Docklands'... without the water!
Maybe an appropriate name for it could be 'BlockLands on Bay Road'!?


And, with all due respect to the city of Bombay, maybe 'Bay Road' should be re-named 'Bombay Road'!?

Apart from other significant issues, the CUMULATIVE pressures of multiple High-Density developments on traffic and public transport have been totally ignored at the planning level!

Irreversible, ill-conceived 'social planning experiments' like this should be STOPPED, and completely re-thought!  A balanced approach to planning is sadly lacking!
