The bungalow remains the same. The boundary wall too. The road height has significantly been raised, but you can still see one tower of the OLPS church building in the background. Also, really happy that the tree at the gate has thankfully managed to stay throughout the years.
Belvedere, the quaint little house located on Chembur's Central Avenue Rd. is a Grade 2B structure and home to the Soares family.
Prof. Aloysius Soares - the first editor of Goan Tribune & an activist in the Goan freedom movement, built this home in 1933.
