Cusrow Baug, Residential colony in Colaba Causeway, India
Cusrow Baug covers 70,000 square meters with residential blocks labeled from A to U, accommodating over 500 families in Mumbai's Colaba district.
English architect Claude Batley designed this residential complex in 1934 as part of five colonies funded by Jerbai Wadia following her husband's inheritance.
The residential blocks incorporate a Zoroastrian fire temple, the Seth Nusserwanji Hirji Karani Agiary, which relocated to the colony in February 1935.
The colony maintains a computer center, gymnasium, and sports club through the Cusrow Baug United Sports and Welfare League for resident activities.
Each residential unit remains exclusively available for rent, never for purchase, maintaining its original purpose of supporting housing needs in Mumbai.
