Mumbai’s struggle to preserve its limited open spaces is becoming increasingly visible as redevelopment, infrastructure projects, commercial activity and planning changes compete for land in the city. Recent reports by the Free Press Journal, Hindustan Times and The Times of India have highlighted concerns over public grounds, gardens, playgrounds and other ecological assets. A recent study by the Urban Design Research Institute and NAGAR found that public open space varies sharply across Mumbai’s 24 wards, from 9.4 sq m per resident in A Ward to just 0.5 sq m in B Ward.
