2292. Aquatic and lion faced water sprouts

La description:: During the time of its restoration in 2017, Flora Fountain was suffering from damage and leakage that interfered with the water flow. The restoration team led by architect Vikas Dilawari had to remove concrete to locate and create a map of the internal plumbing. They then enlisted the services of Burjoor Framji & Co., the city’s oldest plumbers, to repair the damaged plumbing and make the fountain fully operational when it was re-opened in 2019.

2296. Wooden cantilevered staircase

La description:: CSMT and the BMC building were among the first in Mumbai to use cantilevered staircases. The stairs were instead embedded in the wall at one end, with the other end 'free'. Sitaram Khanderao, who assisted Stevens on the BMC building, would go on to use cantilevered stairs for the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, which he designed in collaboration with D.N. Mirza.
