The recent industrial development and upcoming metro projects have changed the landscape of Girgaon. Earlier, the area had no high-rise towers and was marked by a close-knit community. In the 19th century, Girgaon and the adjoining agricultural locality of Khetwadi were sparsely populated, with primitive roads and simple houses.
