Have you wondered what makes a great city a GREAT city?
Why are cities such as London, Rome, Paris, Athens so attractive that we go to them for holidays?
The answer, we believe, is simply that they have old buildings – structures that tell us about history, beauty, human achievement. We feel good walking around the streets. It’s a silent bond with the past.
Why should we not get that feeling in Kolkata? We have the buildings, the history, the pride.
All we need is to get the buildings back into shape – to give them another chance to be part of our lives.
My Calcutta lives on
Join us
Let’s brainstorm
Let’s do
Let’s build a community
We are a group of Kolkata believers ~
● Architects
● Lawyers
● Heritage buffs
● Change makers
Situation 1 : You have a beautiful home. You don’t wish to lose it. There is no one to take care of it up in the future
Situation 2 : You have a beautiful home which is falling apart and you cannot fund repairs
Our thought is that a group of like-minded people can rescue homes and buildings by providing ideas and resources for their sensible and sustainable reuse with initiatives such as
● Art Shows
● Book Talks
● Plays
● Films
● Music
Verticals with volunteers
• Architecture
• Legal
• Programming
• Social Media

Our model is a trust that raises funds, gathers experts willing to offer their skills on an as-needed basis and becomes part of an active – even though small – supporter for buildings that are seen as important to the history, heritage and identity of Kolkata.
