The 'Army and Navy' Building in South Mumbai - another iconic landmark. Worth a look for its fine mid-19th-century neo-classical facade, this building was originally used as a British army navy store.

    I remember the old Army and Navy in London, by Victoria Station. No where near as pretty as Mumbai's version - they replaced it with some awful concrete blob.
