Thanks,  Bosco.

    A marvellous product of the communities outreach is the 
magnificent new Saifee Hospital on Queens Road. ( you can google)
They dutifully pay the ten percent tithe that is expected of them
into the the Aga Khan Trust, every year.  The result is a endless
round of building and charitable activities.
  These Kutchees settled in Bombay two centuries ago. The upper 
class make no public display of religion.  We could learn much from them.

Additional comments: In general it appears the densely populated areas of
South Bombay - Chor Bazaar, Bhuleshwar, Lohar Chawl, Kalbadevi, Masjid
Bunder, Dhobitalao, etc.... are going to go through a bunch of demolitions
and renewal that may well end up with a number of high-rises. The western
sea face north of Dadar looks a lot different than it looked 20 years ago.
