#UrbanQuenchers - The Pyaavs of Mumbai By Ar. Rahul Chemburkar
Through the 18th and 19th centuries, Mumbai’s wealthy citizens built ‘pyaavs’ (drinking water fountains) for the use of the public and draft-animals. Though altruistic in intention, there is often an element of architectural grandeur to these structures to commemorate their benefactor. Now in disuse, as the city has moved on, they are nevertheless important as mirrors of the socio-cultural ethos of their times. The dire need to conserve them for the modern city has been recognised, and architects, historians and bureaucrats have joined hands to restore them back to their original glory. In our Online Talk #UrbanQuenchers, architect Rahul Chemburkar takes us on a journey across the city to shed light on this unique socio-cultural heritage of Mumbai - the pyaavs.
About the speaker:
Rahul Chemburkar is an alumnus of Sir JJ College of Architecture and has been active in the field of heritage conservation and awareness since his early years as a practicing architect. He is a member of the Executive Committee of the Indian Heritage Society and is empanelled as a Heritage Conservation Consultant with MCGM and State Archaeology Department of Goa among others. He and his team have successfully executed several heritage conservation and architectural projects including conservation of Nana Phadnavis Wada at Menavli and the conservation of pyaavs and colonial-era milestones in Mumbai.
