60 Storey Tower House for Mukesh Ambani
5 June 2007 | Category: Architecture Matters
↓ Sponsored Links
I’ve seen that image weeks ago, not quite sure where I saw only when I visit archidose did I realize that I am missing the bigger picture, apparently this tower is more than a tower, according to source this 60-storey house is for just one family, well, technically speaking it is because India’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani is going to fund this project with his own personal company’s money.
Okay, here are the facts that I gathered:
- 27 floors with an equevilent of 60 storeyed residence at 173.12 meters.
- 6 floors for parking, Mukesh’s family has 168 imported cars.
- Facilities for athletics and a swimming pool, and a health club.
- Helipad at rooftop
It is not really a house, I think most of the top floors will be occupied by the family members, the ground floor definately will be allocated for his business and possibly those above the ground floor will be offices and some residential apartments for his nearly 600 staffers that are expected to work in the building, e.g. security personal.
Mukesh Ambani is 14th in Forbes’ 2007 worldwide rankings with a net worth of US$20.1 billion. The building, already worth £500 million, could start a rush on skyscrapers, which is a very good sign for India, it is about time the rich people in India stop migrating and abandon their country, england is not home! With great powers and wealth comes great responsibility.

on December 24th, 2007new science tech and studies had almost proved that, the more rich man is happy in his life but for very short more richer man is carrying more tension on his head, the more richer man has many of the diseases.

on May 7th, 2008A common person gets much more happiness in his own way by spending less money whereas;by investing as much as US$ 20.1billion some people does not even get a half of the happiness they look for.

on May 10th, 2008He is a great man. he makes every indian proud. His father is my idle. i want to be like his father who was an ordinary man and came to such a higher position and became such a big shot. And make us feel that every man can get what he want if he has will power and courage to do.
hmm
on May 15th, 2008wonder what would have happened if he had invested half of this money to improve dhara-v’s bad state….mukesh is such a loser!!!

on May 15th, 2008I’m not familiar with the Indian culture but I believe the cultural system is stopping India from progressing, the rich tend to look down on the poor, probably because of the caste system, and when they’re super rich, they’ll migrate back to their hometown – ‘London’
Building such a big house is a waste of money, he should be helping the poor, probably he is and I’m not aware off.
whoo hooooooooooo

on June 16th, 2008Mr. Ambani
U r hopeless and greedy, just making money form
poor man’s pocket and doing nothing for them expect constructing such huge buildings jus 4 ur own sake,which is unnecessary wen thousands of India’s even dont get 1 sq. of meal and go starving.
Mohan
on June 24th, 2008Mukesh Ambani is not Shahjehan nor is he building a Taj Mahal, if the photo of the house is anything to go by. It is tall, ugly and contorted. Seems Mumbai will soon have the reputation of having the ugliest house on the Globe, thanks to Mukesh and his wife’s ill-conceived design. What a waste of a golden opportunity to showcase Indian Architecture

MJ,
on December 23rd, 2008For all those people ridiculing what he is doing, let me tell you its none of YOUR business how he spends his money.
His nasal spray costs more than your lifetime savings so dont be so immature and say he isnt’t donating, he is, check your sources before posting.
Someone also said above that he is rich but not intelligent, exactly the point my friend, intelligent people will never become rich. So stop whining

on March 11th, 2009I am looking fund to set up agro based industries like production of cheese for Indian market. The Company will be established in Nepal because the climate for cheeze production and fresh milk in different packeging is suitable, tastey, hygenic, and may be suitable to Indan richer and middle level populaton. The concept is that to link with cooperative groups and micro credict institutions and its group members. Therefore these instutions will provide the scheme to its members to purchase cow and these groups will supply the milk to this company. Gradually this links with cow farming, and other agro products like sweet factory and Khazas for school childrens in packet form which may be mixed as sweets, salt and cream. There is huge demand in populaton of India and Nepal. This is consumable industry directly related with females and childrens, which links directly with consumers. I am Economist, I have my own old Company registered in Kathmandu and wants to upgrade my company into public limited. Gradually I wants to introduce the share in peoples market after showing the results. I want to take the technology from APV Bakers and technology borrow from Netherlands. Finally I want to create network link with AMULs, India and Microfinance companies in India and te up with volunteer NGOs lik SEWA. Therefore I am looking some sort capital so that I will push study report data nalysis, push technology and contact for equipment, research and development and applied to Bank for further collaboraton. I will be very much happy, if I get some capital to start these things. Regards/Kiran Dev Pant

” Daikh ka parai amanat nu, hairan na ho!
Rabh tainu ve dega pareshan na ho!!”
No one will ever get more than he is desteened to get and before the time he is desteened to get.
Any way I am happy that you guys are gem of the nation. It would be great if both you brothers, forget your differences and again become one United force. Good Luck.

What are you doing to our country building that 27th story house or building which i dont know. Is making India ugly and you shouldnt have spent your money on that house. You should have helped orphans people living in the slums. your very greedy. You dont share no one anything. YOU SUCK DUDE.

on August 17th, 2009The problem here is of systemic change. All you people still view India from a under developed barbaric outlook which has created and sustained this image and when a systemic change such as affluence and development takes place you guys start raising the leftist flags of halting capitalist development. This is not a socialist regime and India has moved from a closed economy to a free economy with great struggle. Yet we have you foreigners who dont know jack shit about what is happenin in India and the growth story that is being witnessed here. Are you saying there is not poverty in the US? Why dont you ask Donald Trump to halt his constructions and first help the poor in Harlem or the people whose lives have been destroyed in New Orleans? Why arent all the billionaires stopping their lives and first helping people and their financial states in life and then go ahead with their plans? Is that your silly notion of business? Stop waving leftist flags as if you dont want money or riches in life. If you have the capacity to make it in life you would and your riches and luxuries will be relative in terms to someone else’s poverty and the argument will start all over again. What any rich man does with his personal wealth is none of anyone’s business. Stop speaking like leftist Cubans from the 1960s cause we all know what has happened in all socialist regimes, capitalism may not be perfect but it does provide greater comfort to human beings ready to work and put in efforts than take a free ride.

on January 19th, 2010Hi Ambani,
Should i called u as Mr.Ambani? I don’t think so. As an one of the richest man in this globe,you should at list felt ones like an usual people surround you.You create history ?I tell go to hell i won’t agree with that .History created when a normal thing been taken or done in another way around. You same like other take care of your A** only .
If a history maker if your done something for your people .Ehich can be recanize like what THE LORD SIMILAR to GOD Gandhi made.
I pray you might change .
