I saw this on flickr just now, and try as I might, I can’t think of a place that has such a bus stop in Madras. It looks like OMR, especially the bougainvillea and the light poles in the middle (blurred out), but the ugly mound of earth right behind the stop doesn’t cue OMR.
So I am guessing this is just off OMR, on the roads leading to either Thiruvanmiyur or Velachery.
probably OMR after NIFT..i am not familiar with the OMR..
tharamani … somewhere near tidel park ?
GST road … somewhere near the AAI colony?
Hah!
It takes a simple one to stump the experts 😀
keep guessing
This is def not OMR. I cant see the MRTS railway bridge.
This is so unfair… my office has blocked the images!! I can’t even see the image… how am I supposed to participate? 😦
Is this opposite Fort St.George? I haven’t seen the actual stop (assuming there’s a new one), but the RHS of the pic reminds me of the Fort’s entrance.
@shiva
No worries, this is more important than boring office work 🙂

I think this is on Mount Road, near Raj Bhavan.
opposite fort st george
Is it near madhya kailash towards tidel park ?
I am guessing it is the beach road (somewhere close to that Marina thingum) I don’t know area name and all… but the road reminds me of the path the bus takes to go to Paris.
Navneeth’s guess, I think, is the right one. Fort St. George.
Yep, Navneeth was right. Its the Fort bus stop on Rajaji Salai. A lot of sprucing up happening in the area, with a nice garden coming up.
And i’m quite happy with the number of wrong guesses, hehehe 😀
For once,u had so many wrong guesses…..
🙂
I know, and the timing was just right. The Hindu published a pic of just it two days back.
Anna square close to marina beach.
Its juzz on the road to Fort St. George. They’re converting the ageold platform into these kind of shiny and i can see awesome bus stops there.. 🙂
i only knew tis oneee 😀
but ppl already said 😦
This place is bang opposite to Fort St.George (Old secretariat) abutting the water fountain with a abstract sculpture!!
I know this place very precise because I designed the entire Marina Beach and Rajaji Salai stretch!!
