About Byculla, Mumbai

  • Overview
  • What’s Great?
  • What’s Not Great?

Mumbai was formed by reclamation. Till this time, Byculla was an extension of Mazgaon. And it used to inundate during high tides. It was only after the amalgamation of the seven islands that Byculla became a center of housing and textiles. By the 1990s, Byculla had become the epicenter of Mumbai's underworld, but now the area is devoid of the celebrities it once was. It is also well connected to South Mumbai and its suburbs via the central rail network. 

There are loads of places for tourist attractions like the zoo, museum, Jain temple, St. Anne’s Church, etc. Also, it is well-equipped with amenities like markets, hospitals, and railway stations. Byculla has seen rapid growth in real estate in the past few years. All these points make it one of the best places to invest in real estate.

Brief description - Byculla 

Byculla is classified in Ward "E" within the municipal boundaries of Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation or BMC. Byculla borders Nagpada, Mumbai Central, and Mahalakshmi to the west; Agripada and Jacob circle on the North West; Mazagaon and Dockyard Road to the east;  Chinchpokli from the North; Reay Road and Ghodapdeo on the North East; and Sandhurst Road and Bhendi Bazaar to the south.

Byculla, like many other places in Mumbai, has seen significant growth in real estate, especially in the area around Motisha Lane, where many high-rise apartments are home to wealthy Jain communities. Recently, Byculla has seen a growing population of Dawoodi Bohra and other traditional Muslims, and like most Gujaratis, they are primarily a business community.

Byculla is well connected to the Central Railway Line of Mumbai Suburban Railway via Byculla Railway Station as well as bus lines operated by BEST. Most bus routes serving South Mumbai, South Central Mumbai, Central Mumbai, and North East Mumbai pass through Byculla.

What’s great about Byculla?

Byculla is Mumbai's old-world charm with a modern twist. One can explore the Mumbai horizon, formed by the endless Arabian Sea and Eastern Harbour. Feel the openness of Mumbai surrounded by the bounty of nature and enjoy the privileged living of Mumbai's old-world charm. With good infrastructure and close proximity to all amenities, it's a great location for everyone to live. Most of the city's most prestigious schools are located here. With a history of 150 years, the St. Mary ISC, revered as one of the oldest and finest educational institutions, is here. Many students come from far away. In addition to historical attractions such as Bhau Daji Lad Museum and Jijamata Udyan, Byculla also has a well-developed urban and social infrastructure.

What’s not great about Byculla?

Every coin has two faces and so does Byculla. There are many traffic jams every day. The area is densely populated and there is little space to walk on the streets or drive your own car. There is no parking space, so it is advised to purchase a parking space separately. Greens are also below average. Byculla is well supplied with water and electricity. However, slums, unsanitary conditions, some dilapidated buildings, and many illegal constructions in the area have strained the city authorities. Apart from that, drainage and sewage systems also need attention. There are severe floods during monsoon season.

I have rented an apartment near Byculla to stay with my grandfather for the last two years. My neighbors are very helpful and friendly. There are several tea stalls in our locality and a few well-known restaurants are also situated there. But the roads are not well maintained and there were no spread breakers in the middle of the roads to prevent several road accidents.

I have my own beautiful house in the locality of Byculla, Mumbai and here I am leaving alone for my transferable job. I just love to explore new books so I do visit the bookstores near my locality and collect some of my favorite books. There is a library near the local government school and the library is filled with various essential books.
