29th March 2008 :: Flower of Phoenix

Like Phoenix rose from its ashes, the Phoenix Mill also managed to resurrect itself...sort of. While all the mills are fast disappearing from the Mumbai Landscape and giving way to big buildings for offices and houses, this place has managed to save a little of its existence. It is no longer a mill but a mall with a lot of up market and mass market stores and has managed to save a little bit of its structure including its chimney. It may not be what it was earlier but still... after all there is a difference of an “i” and an “a” in Phoenix Mill and Phoenix Mall.
