Forging a New Dawn - Revitalization of Darukhana

This thesis reimagines Darukhana — Mumbai’s historic shipbreaking hub — through an urban intervention that connects community, industry, and heritage. It proposes a community center, a public promenade, a museum narrating its past, and safer, reorganized shipbreaking yards — aiming to revive the site and forge a more inclusive, dignified future.
