Abstract
Re-Weaving Mumbai: Re-discovering Industrial heritage in the Indian Sub-continent Industrial heritage, with its unique narrative, often occupies a significant position in the discussion of cultural, economic, and historic aspects in the West, while its relevance is mostly overlooked in the Indian context. Often seen as a remnant of the industrial past, the country in general dismisses it, leading to the vandalism, demolition, and ruin of structures associated with it. Most of the industrial structures are viewed as an eyesore to the city without offering the bleak potential of revitalising it. Their constant neglect has led to various industrial sites being demolished, gentrified, and transformed without retaining even a part of their history and integrity.
