Case Study on Dharavi

(Archithoughts, 2009)

Mumbai houses the largest slums in Asia. Most notable is Dharavi, which lies in the center of Mumbai where more than one million squatters live in temporary housing on one square mile of government land, juxtaposed beside the modern and high-priced commercial developments. 

In this section, we look at the gentrification process in Mumbai through the slum redevelopment project in Dharavi.

This will be analyzed by looking at the process of the proposed Dhravai Redevelopment Plan (DRP), combined with examining failed policies regarding gentrification in Dharavi.
