- Every year new installations are made by the residents of Matharpacady during Christmas, entirely handmade by them. The sleigh is pulled by the reindeer Rudolf and Dasher, and driven by Santa Claus across the night sky. The sleigh was very popular with the neighbourhood children who were thrilled to take a ride on it and get their pictures clicked.

- A bread seller ferrying his goods on a bicycle in front of D’Silva House, 24 Matharpacady, the house of Mr Trevor D’Silva, and his sister Joan Saint-Prix, grandnephew and grandniece to Joseph ‘Kaka’ Baptista (1864-1930), Indian freedom fighter and a prominent member of the East Indian community. Kaka Baptista was born in Matharpacady in 1864 in his ancestral house which has now been demolished and replaced by a high-rise building. Kaka Baptista was a barrister at the Bombay High Court and was closely associated with Bal Gangadhar Tilak. In 1925, he was elected as the mayor of the Bombay Municipal Corporation.

- La description:
- Despite its proximity to the sea, Mazagaon had an abundant freshwater supply. Wells were the only sources of drinking water before tap water was made available inside homes. This is the central well of Matharpacady, located in a circle known as Brahmin Chawl. This was the only source of fresh water in the past but is no longer used and remains covered up. Other than this public well, there were also private wells inside houses.

The gaothan becomes a hub of activity from early December in preparation for Christmas and continues till New Year’s celebrations. During Christmas, the Managing Committee of the Holy Cross Oratory and the Residents’ Welfare Association ALM work in unison to decorate the lanes of Matharpacady Village with decorative lighting.

- The patron saint of the Holy Cross is St. Roch, who is especially invoked against plague, cholera, and epidemics. Traditionally, every year, the Managing Committee of the Holy Cross Oratory organizes the nine-day Novena Services, which are held in the late evening from April 22 to April 30. This is the stained glass portrait of Jesus Christ on the rose window of the chapel, illuminated during Christmas.

- Kudd in the Konkani language means 'room'. In the 1950s Matharpacady housed dozens of kudds, which catered to expatriate Goans working as sailors or in the dockyard in and around Mazagaon. Kudds offered them a home away from home. However, migration from Goa declined with its integration with India in 1960 and the rise of tourism from the 1980s. Many kudds have closed due to a fall in occupancy and the ones remaining are run-down. Seen here, at the end of the street, is the Paroda kudd, at 21/B Matharpacady.

- Lopez House, at 23D Matharpacady, was the residence of Lt Cdr Eric Lopes and his daughter Dagmar Lopez. On Sundays, Dagmar played Western music on the musical saw (a popular vaudeville instrument, which looks like a flexible carpenter’s handsaw, played with a bow drawn across the non-toothed side by holding the handle between the knees and bending the blade while bowing along the flat edge) accompanied by his brother Ian Lopes on the guitar.

- During Christmas, Matharpacady comes alive at night. Every house is given a fresh coat of paint and the Star of Bethlehem is hung from the balcony. The lanes are decorated with lights and illuminative symbols of reindeer, candy sticks, bells, stars, snowflakes, and fairies. Christmas is celebrated by the entire gaothan, irrespective of community and religion. Inside the homes, families come together to decorate Christmas trees and install miniature nativity scenes.

- The metal balustrade on the balcony at Mi Casa, 20A Matharpacady, features portraits of Queen Victoria, clearly installed in the late 19th century during her rule. The name Mi Casa means ‘My Home’ in Spanish. Like Mi Casa, most of the 40-odd surviving heritage bungalows in Matharpacady are painted in bright colours, a feature of Indo-Portuguese architecture, seen in neighbourhoods like Fontainhas in Panjim, Goa.

- Lion’s Den is the home of the Leao family. Built-in 1892, the yellow-painted, two-storied house is located at 85 R Naik Road. It has a sprawling open balcony running along the perimeter of the first floor, with decorative metal grille balusters. The staircase to the first floor is located from the outside (to the left). It is one of the best-preserved houses typical of Indo-Portuguese architecture and has changed little in over 130 years of existence.
