The Bandra local railway station. It has been declared a heritage structure. The station, one of the oldest on the western lines and a Grade-I heritage structure, was approved for renovation by the Mumbai Heritage Conservation Committee on December 2007, provided that its style of architecture was preserved. After a painstaking restoration work, the doors of the restored station building was thrown open to the citizens on May 7. The recreated look, complete with red-tiled roofs, intricate eaves, fine woodwork pillars, high-arched walls, iron windows and large doors look exactly the way it would have when it was built in the 1880s.
