- Prince Anwar Shah Road
Prince Anwar Shah Road has been named after Prince Gulam Mohammed Anwar Shah, one of
Tipu Sultan 's 12 sons.Localities
Taking a peep into history, in the aftermath of the death of Tipu Sultan, during the battle of Mysore, the then British rulers threw all the dozen sons of Tipu into prison at Vellore, from where they were shifted to another prison in Calcutta in 1807, suspecting that they had powered an abortive rebellion in Vellore jail. That's how Tipu's descendants landed in Kolkata.
It starts from the
Gariahat Road and connects toTollygunge on the west, puts posh south Kolkata neighbourhoodJodhpur Park on its right and then runs throughLake Gardens before finally reachingTollygunge .Mall-eria continues to grip the metro, but it hasn’t got bigger than opening of the [http://www.southcityprojects.com/sc_mall.htm South City Mall] before. The South City Mall on Prince Anwar Shah Road, Calcutta’s “first destination mall”, opened its shop floor in early July 2007, forever changing the landscape of Prince Anwar Shah Road.
The
South City mini-township is located on a convert|31.14|acre|m2|sing=on site on Prince Anwar Shah Road in the heart of South Kolkata, just oppositeJodhpur Park . It is minutes away from top city clubs like RCGC and Tollygunge Club, hospitals such as AMRI and EEDF and a stone’s throw from the Metro stations at Tollygunge and Rabindra Sarobar and the connector to EM Bypass and Lake Gardens flyover.The much-awaited Prince Anwar Shah Road connector to the
Eastern Metropolitan Bypass was successfully thrown open to the public on March 1 2007.The two-lane road will be a shorter alternative to the
Rashbehari Avenue connector for motorists approaching the Bypass from the southern part of the city. This certainly has improved access to the EM Bypass for the residents of Shahidnagar, Bibeknagar, Selimpur etc. Officials of the CMDA claim that it takes less than six minutes to reach the Bypass from the crossing of Prince Anwar Shah Road andRaja SC Mullick Road , which is a continuation ofGariahat Road .Landmarks
