Fort Remnants


The remains of the outer wall of the erstwhile Mahim fort. This photo has been clicked from Bandra Reclamation.

Strategically located in the Mahim Bay, the fort overlooks Worli to the south, Bandra to the north, and Mahim to the east. The origins of the fort are unclear, but it occupies a strategic location that has been frequently contested. The fort is currently in disrepair, suffering from administrative neglect, encroachment of slums, and exposure to tidal erosion.
