Ahmedabad City Square Tower to be built on Sindhu Bhavan Road at a cost of ₹570 crore

The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation has planned to construct an iconic tower project named 'Ahmedabad City Square' on Sindhu Bhavan Road at a cost of ₹570 crore. Tenders for this project were issued on 25 October. According to a report by The Times of India, the height of this tower has been reduced by 5 metres and it will now be 175 metres tall.

According to a report by Sandesh, the tender process will be finalised in two and a half months after holding two pre-bid meetings. Once the work commences, a period of 42 months has been set to complete this project.

A total plot of 13,144 square metres has been allocated for this project, out of which construction will be carried out on 12,091 square metres. Three basements will be built for parking facilities, which will be able to accommodate 385 cars and 1109 two-wheelers. In addition, an extra parking space for 450 cars will also be provided in front of the tower.

Several facilities have been included in this modern project of Ahmedabad City Square. The tower will have 50 shops, an art gallery, and a terrace cafe. A two-storey restaurant with a capacity of 1200 people will be built in a 40-metre area for dining. Furthermore, a sky deck-walk will be constructed at a height of 175 metres. The project also includes features like 17 lifts, a solar tree, and an urban plaza.

However, a controversy is also being observed at the local level regarding this project. According to the report by Sandesh, despite the announcement made by the Municipal Commissioner, there is talk of displeasure among the Standing Committee Chairman and members as they were not provided with the details of this project.
