In the middle of the monsoon season, about 400 residents of an SRA building in Kurla West have been asked by the civic body to vacate their homes citing a threat to their lives. A builder developing the adjacent plot has dug it up too close to this 6-storey structure, whose exposed base has been weakened due to rainwater. The residents said they had written to the authorities when the work started but nobody took any action.

The building of Mahananda Nagar Co-operative Housing Society came up under a project by the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) in 2013. Located at Kurla New Mill Road, it has 96 flats and 10 shops.
