If you're in the Fort or Churchgate vicinity, there's no way you'll miss this 85-metre tall structure. Tucked between the Bombay High Court and the University of Mumbai, Rajabai Tower is undoubtedly a perfect example of Gothic and French style of architecture. It was designed by an English architect named Sir Gilbert Scott who modelled this tower on the basis of the UK's Ben Tower.
Did you know the entire cost of construction (which was approx INR 2 lakh) was funded by an Indian businessman and the founder of BSE - Premchand Roychand? In return to the funding, he has only one condition that the tower should be named after his mother Rajabai. As his mother was blind, the clock tower bells helped her know the time without anyone's help.
