India does build skyscrapers. It's just they're all in the Emirates.
@@Sathish_12 he is talking about Indian workers and engineers.
That's funny
sheesh 💀💀
Bangladesh as well
Lol...all the labours ran away from India ...but still they manage to build small huts by low skilled personz
You forgot to mention the dreaded Airports Authority of India. They impose strict height restrictions across many cities like in Mumbai and Gandhinagar. Mumbai had many skyscrapers above 300m underconstruction (around 15-20) but the AAI stalled these projects and the skyscrapers ended up being only around 220-280m like the World One Tower which was initially meant to be 410m. Conversely, Hyderabad is a city with currently no FSI restrictions and so many skyscrapers (around 200m) are currently underconstruction. Delhi and Bengaluru still have extremely strict FSI though. Dont be under the impression that no skyscrapers are being built in India though. Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad and to a lesser extent Kolkata, are all having skyscraper construction booms
Yes, they're the biggest enemies of skyscraper
that's good for hyderabad but why does this city has no fsi why the exception ?
Correct
Exactly world towers 442m , threesixty west 360 360m, india tower 700m,
All below 280m or end up like india tower canceled
@@saitushar6508 airport is far from the main city
Cities like Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Banglore, Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram and Visakhapatnam have potential to build more and more skyscrapers. Mumbai's high population density needs more sky scrapers like New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo

As Indonesia, I'm also confused why there aren't many skyscrapers in India when it's good for a high population 🙃
An update here by an Indian, even though we don't have a lot of skyscrapers, it is starting to rise now people are starting to live in apartments owning a flat ik it's very sad we don't have a lot of them 😞😢
It has more space not like Indonesia
Skyscrapers are not good for high population
@@goncalodias6402 Then do you have any better alternative to it?
@@aiswaryabersan7983 Indonesia land area is about 2/3 of India while the population is about 1/5. And also similar economy level, so....
Leaving out Airports Authority of India's cock-blocking any attempt from a builder to go beyond 300 meters in Mumbai is a big omission on B1M's part.
FSIs are the biggest reason. Indian cities have the worst FSI - floor space index regulations in the world
FSI is a universal issue. Like a city without an airport would still have no skyscrapers with this FSI
No, it has very little to do with it. Almost all major cities have airports, and these restrict the height of towers. But India is unique.
With how hot it gets in India, it's probably a good thing they don't have a lot of skyscrapers because they would take a ton of energy to cool when certain cities in India getting over 100° F (37° C). On top of that the power outages would be a nightmare.
@@carstarsarstenstesenn The amount you pay for higher rents due to low FSIs can easily be used to pay for air conditioning.
See Dubai.
I always wondered as an Indian why does our country have an extreme lack of skyscrapers! Now I know, thanks for the video

This was really interesting and informative. I am an Indian but I never realised how few sky scrappers we have. I just hope we keep growing as a country and are able to solve this problem in the coming years.
This is not a problem. Not building skyscrapers is not a problem holy shit.
skycrapers doesn't reflect development, indians shouldn't fall for these traps
@@reubennelson4086 B1M loves skycrapers but they should also tell about the bad side of it
@@reubennelson4086 in 2100 india will lose their jugle because your country always built horizontal
@@reubennelson4086 It is a problem, horizontal development has been devastating for the environment.
I don't know about other cities but at least in Kolkata, there were some skyscrapers projects scrapped due to height regulations imposed by Airport Authority in India , especially because the area in which skyscrapers were about to be built in Newtown - Rajarhat area which is pretty close to the airport. Of course, there are multiple factors.
Obviously you're not gonna build next to the airport. NYC has 3 airports and very tall buildings
You don't have other places to build...Why only near Airport..?
@@Ok....- Its because the land space far from the airport is already crowded.....also the new part of the city is closer to the airport because again land space was available........
@@Ok....- because that's the only place where some worthwhile economic activity occurs in Kolkata aka the Detroit of India
Indian cities have the worst FSI - floor space index regulations in the world
4:55 📍Shillong has a rule that restricts building more than 3 stories for residential and 5 stories for commercial keeping in mind the location being earthquake prone zone.

@@AndrewManook OK , mike tython. You don't like skyscrapers neither regular homes. What's the plan then?
Even while building my residential house, we had to pay a fine for going a little over the prescribed height limit. So in short, the height regulations here are strict.
How much fine?
@@itsmanasK sorry for late reply, i don't remember exactly because it was back in 2014
Is your residential house a skyscraper?
@@thefreemonk6938 even residential houses have guidelines
Which city or town my dear ?
something you forgot to mention was that Mumbai's Municipal Corporation gives concessions to builders on the FSI limit if the builder does something for them in return say for example the builder provides public parking in the complex the Municipality would allow the builder to build higher.
Another thing is that Mumbai's airport is smack in the middle of the city even if builders wanted to build higher they cant because the Airport Authority interferes and lowers the heights of buildings. for eg. they stopped the contruction of a 320m building called palais royale and made them reduce floors similarly they did not give clearance to another builder who wanted to build a 400m residential tower (the same tower now stands at 290m)
I was expecting totally different ending to "something for them in return".
@@prathneo 😭

@@ineed2ventnow then u have to compare size of othe cities with mumbai...
Mumbai is smaller than any city with similar population.
@@nikhilreddypaladugu621 why does navi mumbai not have skyscrapers then ? their upcoming airport is a few km's south the city and nowhere close to the main city center
It's strange how you frame not having skyscrapers as being behind as a country.
obsession with "skylines"
For India it is totally strange for not having skyscrapers. I live here and I can tell you cities keep expanding outwards and that has a terrible impact on pollution, more fuel usage, worse work life balance, income inequality, etc. Never underestimate how a tiny forced restriction can have much more adverse ripple effects in people's lives.
@@ItsMeChillTyme those problems can be fixed without skyscrapers. A bunch of 5 story apartments would be better and more affordable than any rich high rise condo.
They dont do shit for new york for example.
That's because it is. Skyscrapers allow people to concentrate in an area, so that businesses get a great range of potential workers. They are a driver of growth.
@@Chasipants You are so ignorant of the scale of population here, it is unbelieveable. Load up New Delhi on street view (not old delhi which is just Delhi) and all you see it 5+ storied apartments stacked up and the population is still dense. The rich just move into larger and more luxurious apartments with more services. Now this sprawl has gobbled up 3 cities with it. I'm all with the whole skycrappers sentiment but this isn't some hyper developed scandinavian nation we're talking about.
About Mumbai, you're right - but only partially. FSI in Mumbai is very closely tied to FSI premiums and TDR (transferable development rights), which are just different ways to buy additional FSI. Through premiums, builders can simply buy extra FSI from the gov, and through TDR, builders can undertake social development, like give up some reserved land for a public service or build cheap housing for slum dwellers, to get more FSI that they can use in another project. So tldr, base FSI is not final FSI. This does, however, increase the cost of high FSI which leads to more expensive/large housing built in tall buildings, defeating the goal of more/affordable housing.
Spot on ! FSI is the rule in India that limits size of buildings. Bigger builders use FSI from low cost region to make high-rise in areas with better returns even in same city.
Bear in mind, building tall skyscrapers is not equal to modernization or better living standards, improvement of satisfaction of people living in the area is the true goal of modernization, it's not simply defined by the heights of buildings.

Skyscrapers don’t create optimum density.
Beautiful cities have a 6 story height restriction: think Barcelona or Amsterdam. And these cities are DENSE - Paris packs 21000 people per km2 (Mumbai is marginally higher although they build above 6 stories).
And Paris’ density is evenly distributed - optimum.
Skyscrapers result in density spikes which amplify congestion. M
Then why can Hong Kong or Singapore manage high density? Also, it’s about units per floor. A skyscraper with just 4 flats per floor will have a much lower density than a Soviet block. The congestion from skyscrapers can be mitigated by building more public transit and restricting cars from road’s around.
@@dex6316 That's just reconfirming how useless it is to pump heaps of money into tall slender skyscrapers. They barely increase density unless built very close to each other à la Hong Kong compared to bigger blockier mid-rises. Just a decadent dick-measuring contest. Paris has an extremely dense center which is liveable and allows functions to mix on the ground. Vertically functions will never mix to the same degree despite some recent efforts. This isolates people high into the air and in their cars, removing all the random encounters that make a community. We're still repeating often disproven modernist dogma, just with a slightly more capitalist touch.
Yup, and tackling a 1.5 billion population with skyscrapers (that require steel), they would need 1000x the skyscrapers of China. This channel got it backwards, other countries are in desperate need of medium density.
I do not believe in the concept of skyscrapers. Cities which have no skycrapers are more prettier, more managed and more livelier.
@@badmintonscroll Maybe this is true in Europe, but in India most cities are dirty and overcrowded. A skyscraper would let you breathe uncontaminated air, at least
We have something vary similiar in Brasil, which is called "use coefficient of land". At least in my city and neighbors cities this FSI is around 3 to 5, depends to the regions of the city.
I find cities very interesting. I enjoy watching this channel sometimes :) very informative and accurate facts. Keep up the good work :)
What accurate facts? Entire video is full of lies. Tell this m0r0n to open the wiki for tallest buildings in Mumbai.
Vani Herlekar is right: Population Density =/= Crowding. Providing more rooms can make more space for people. That's why, here in the USA, the American Community Survey measures them differently: density is people per square mile, but crowding is people per room.
Sky is literally free real estate
@@TheRishijoesanu the cost is the safely build them
@@TheAmericanCatholic The cost of not having skyscrapers is high rents
She misses out one part. The state of Maharashtra actually does not want growth in Mumbai. Reason being the higher you earn, you find Mumbai too shitty and just take your wealth and leave. This results in potential businesses moving to other states, especially neighboring Gujarat. In fact, there have been several methods to deindustrialize Mumbai. One has been to penalize industries which try to setup offices inside Mumbai. This has sort of led offices to move to Navi/New Mumbai. However, this has not been enough and Maharashtra has been promoting industries in Pune etc to decouple the dependency on Mumbai.
Fun fact a top hat was also called a skyscraper.
Skyscraper is just ment to say anything thin and tall so it can be a hat a house or a horse yes I said it a horse.

Mumbai has some amazing skyscrapers. I'm going there this December. Excited to take some photos.
Nice to see another video about India. It's interesting to see how these old regulations are changing, and hopefully for the better. Perhaps in a few years there will be more skyscrapers which allow more green space. Combined with more rapid transit, I hope for a reduction in the air pollution that is a problem in many of these cities.
If the green space is off limits to the public though, than i'd prefer it just stay as housing

Brazil has somewhat similar restrictions. We don't face infrastructure shortages like India, but we do have restrictions on height and FSI. For instance, Greater Rio de Janeiro has around 13 million people, but very few buildings with more than 30 stories. Even on plots of land around suburban trains, subway lines or major highways, we have restricted building codes. This forces people outwards and to the slums.
Sir India doesn't have problem of infra as it built more highways than even china and US in last 5 yrs under PM Modi and even more than expressways built in last 75 yrs but westerners don't come to India and show that
Brazil was rich back in days and reached its peak and could build the infrastructure it enjoys now, not on the level of countries such as USA, Canada or EU but good in certain ways but india has a long way to go and just recently it has begun its infrastructure boom
@@melroyreus3417 yes I do agree with you that India's infrastructure boom just began from 2016....but the speed is mind blowing.... In terms of highway... Railway... India is growing...

@@lovemsoni1844 US and other developed countries tend to have less infras proj such as those you have mentioned bec they tend to focus on renovations and upgrades rather than building new ones. Some of their highways are in-fact being decommissioned to make way for more parks and spaces. China has even implemented new policy on building skycrappers to limit it.
India right now is doing what it should have been done long time ago. Infras proj for the people since it is heavily populated and poised to become the most populated country in the world. Indians should have been demanding better public service and infras projects to their govt instead of waiting for them to act. And glad to see that their govt is finally doing something. And it is better than doing nothing at all when it comes to infras projects.
Brazil have oil so they can build whatever they want
Go Ahmedabad, Gujarat! You'll be amazed to see the booming Multi-Storey Building scene there. FSI and FAR is a pain for developers around the planet, but more so in India. India needs to relax its building bye laws majorily so more developers can build as per rules and taller as well, rather than having to use back channels and all sorts of one-off agreements between builder and development authorities.

India may not have a skyscrapers but the landscape is changing. The city where I live, PCMC(Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation) was just a small industrial town when I was born 20 years ago. Today, the city has 3 zones planned specifically for IT parks and PCMC is not even a major city in India. It's a satellite city to Pune, also known as Oxford of the East, and which has the second largest IT park in India after Bangalore.
It's crazy how much things have changed in just 20 years.
The main reason is the great AIRPORT AUTHORITY OF INDIA
There are many buildings which are have some different and amazing structure like namste tower but
The aai stopped this because of too much height 🌝
All reason like water and electricity are not big issue atleast now
But good things is many Skyscraper is under construction i only know ant Mumbai there are more than 250 Skyscrapers which are aproved by aai

Ask Airport Authority of INDIA, they doesn’t give permission to build taller then a certain limit cause airports in India are randomly constructed wherever the land was available.

I don't know about power shortage issue...I'm a Maharashtrian from Nashik, WFH since 2003 (ITES), and even in the hot summer months, I haven't witnessed any power cuts. It was an issue maybe around 2008-09 somthing but not anymore (still do have power cuts for 15-20 months and that happens rarely.
Even I'm from Nashik, but saying you haven't witnessed ANY power cut is completely false.
I live on Gangapur Road, one of the posh localities of Nashik, but the power goes off at least twice in a week. Yes it's for 2-3 minutes only, but the thing is it does.
It also goes off in the summer on several Saturdays when they have scheduled maintenance of wires.
It also goes off in the monsoon when there are heavy rains, and sometimes it takes 8-10 hrs for them to fix it when there are heavy thunderstorms. The biggest problem in India is that we don't have underground cables, so any fluctuation in the weather causes power shut down!!
May be because that's a big city and it happens with poor people who lives in villages coz I face power cut every day during summer that too sometimes for 2-4 hours and also everytime it rains sone time for whole night the electricity is gone and guess what my own state produce electricity
Indian cities does build a large number of skyscrapers but almost all of them are residential. Even the 300 mtrs ones in mumbai are residential skyscrapers. Indian cities don't invest money on building showpiece skyscrapers like gulf cities or Chinese cities.
Instead Indian cities invest huge number of money on building metrorail and suburban rail because that's the most demanded infrastructure in Indian cities and not showpiece skyscrapers.
For example cities like Jakarta or
Ho chi min have far more skyscrapers than Delhi. But delhi has a far far far bigger metro rail system than those cities.(close to 400 kms). Indian authorities are currently mostly focusing on rapid transit networks in our cities and their focus on skyscrapers is almost nil.

Another thing is more upward you go more maintenance cost increases and Indians check cost of maintenance first before buying an apartment, thats why half of the high-rise towers in Mumbai and in satellite towns around city were unsold and developers dont take risk of building skyscrapers because of loss they face.
Hyderabad, also in India, has a FSI of 9-14. And is definitely seeing a skyscraper boom. Also, after Mumbai, the city with the largest number of skyscrapers in India is Kolkata.
Tall skyscrapers usually have luxury residences, not affordable housing. I dont think building taller is a solution to a housing shortage. Mainly access to better housing relies on good financing and controlling construction costs.
That is true. But I still don't see why you would want to limit hight. It forces up the prices, limits progress and encourages sprawl. Unless you wana go the communist way of building alot of cheap identical buildings where demand are low and hope it will fix future needs less restrictions are the way to go in a capitalist society.
Well not like poor people can afford big lands
@@P4hko For India even that's a good Idea, Atleast we can get rid of our conjusted and unplanned cities.
Well thats typically true in most places, its totally possible to build affordable housing in sky scrapers as well, see many cities in China.
@@nickskier1 China is an infrastructure FRAUD.
Btw, in Jakarta the FSI for residential zone averaged at only 1.2 before this year lol, with 89% of its land zoned for FSI of 0-2. In fact, I'd argue that Jakarta metro area is more sprawling than any Indian city metro area. The only reason why Jakarta built several relatively tall highrises is because big developers are able to pay the FSI compensation (there's no limit as long as you have the money!) to maximize their parcels. Spaced apart skyscrapers with huge parking lots alongside single family homes are common sights in Jakarta. Not really a great use of land, I'd say. I prefer the European way of building mostly midrises but evenly spreading it across the city instead of clustering high rises only in downtown.
That said, a recent regulation change has raised the average designated FSI for residential zone throughout the city to 3.6, with areas near transit stops drastically raised to the FSI of 7 (within ~1 mile radius) and 11 (within a half mile radius). This allows smaller developers to build mid to high rises without having to pay lots of money for FSI compensation.
@Zaydan Naufal tapi nyatanya emang gitu kkop itu bisa di atasi dengan bayar pake uang 💰
@Zaydan Naufal All great points, especially about the archaic land law and public housing. Honestly major land law reform should have been done years ago lol.
Now that I think about it, Yogyakarta is similar to Bali in that the heights of urban buildings there are roughly the same throughout the metro area but it's mostly low density. IMO Sumatran cities are the closest you could have to Europan cities in terms of building forms (not necessarily the function tho). I feel like Medan with its shophouses-lined downtown and grid street pattern has the potential to be more walkable than say, Surabaya where the skyscrapers are clustered in random areas and are built next to low density landed houses. Even smaller cities like Selatpanjang has a pretty dense downtown lined with shophouses. Definitely more walkable than a suburb development with the same population in Jabodetabek.
Re: parking lots, it's definitely not in the level of North America but Jakarta CBD still has more than I'd expected for a downtown tbh (even when compared to more walkable American downtowns). I lived in Portland, OR and Boston, MA for several years and there are essentially no surface parking in their downtowns except curb parking along narrow streets. It's definitely not the case in Jakarta CBD, where surface parking lot (illegal or not) still exist. Parking scarcity is a good thing, because it will deter people from actually driving into the downtown and causing traffic jam. Of course, this will only work if there are viable alternatives to driving or more affordable housing in or near the downtown.
makanya ibu kota di pindah, karna Jakarta dari awal konsepnya ngawur bahkan dari era Soekarno mau di pindah tapi keburu lengser sampe akhirnya cuma Jokowi yg berani pindahin ibu kota.
gw cuma berharap di Nusantara penataannya lebih tertata rapi, dan harus di bangun banyak gedung apartemen tinggi biar orang2 tinggal di situ, biar gak ada tempat yg ada padat penduduk.
@Zaydan Naufal iya gw tau tapi dengan banyaknya gedung apartemen tinggi bisa menampung banyak orang tinggal di sana dari pada gak ada tempat terus orang2 bangun pemukiman sembarangan malah jadi tempat padat penduduk lagi gak beda jauh sama Jakarta.
kalo untuk perumahan mending dikit aja meminimalisir penggunaan lahan yg berlebihan biar lebih banyak lahan terbuka buat resapan air.
Istana Presiden aneh dari mana ? gw malah suka desainnya, justru kalo Istananya udah jadi sesuai desainnya itu bakal jadi bangunan ikonik, toh filososinya desainnya bagus dari bentuk Garuda terus di samping ada 3 pilar keatas mirip rumah adat padang, desain ini belum pernah di pake di seluruh dunia ini bisa ini jadi gebrakan dan jadi simbol bangunan ikonik.
@Zaydan Naufal di mana2 yg namanya bangunan gak ada yg ramah lingkungan, lu bangun rumah itu aja udah rusak lingkungan karna rumah lu tutupin tanah buat resap air.
apapun selama ini gw selalu dukung rencana Nusantara ini, semuanya pasti udah di pikirin dulu dari segi aspek dan penataannya.
justru ngapain bangun gedung sedang kalo bisa sekalian gedung tinggi ? toh gedung tinggi bisa memaksimalkan lahan.
yakin Nusantara gak bakal sepadat Jakarta ? ini baru awal kita harus antisipasi jangan sampe mengulangi kesalahan kayak di Jakarta.
Nusantara ini untuk permanen jangka panjang karna Kalimantan ini tempat yg strategis tepat di tengah2 Indonesia, kalo mau pindah ibu kota lagi kedepannya minimal harus 100 tahun lagi gak bisa asal2an.

He said in the starting that India have low power supply. But for his Knowledge I want to say that Indian mega giant powerplant are running at 60 percent of total their total capacity. Problems comes in distribution not in generating electricity.
I was wondering: why dont they paint white lines on the road, so you'd have seperate line which gives more structure. The roads seem wide enough for multiple lanes
We are still lower income country.
Probably painted when new but just never maintained
I don't think you know the memes, they use every square inch of space possible, the traffic is crazy. Only on some roads they actually follow the painted lanes. To this point I still can't understand why India's infactracture can't look normal. Why the roads are always so dirty and break easily, the highways have people walking everywhere.
Because it is not of most importance.

Skyscrapers are NOT symbol of development look at European countries.
FSI restrictions limits the illegal conversion of farmland into residential land . If the piece of land has FSI restrictions then it is approved by authorities and safe to buy .
Skyscrapers are only for rich while low rise building accommodates all classes.
Even with the low FSI mumbai still has 200,000 + unsold inventory of apartment units. Middle classes simply cannot afford them .
Also majority of wealth of indians is in the form of independent land and house so limited FSI restrictions can benefit them as it increases the land prices.
I live in small city of population below 100,000 and here you can build upto 3 times of Land and I think that's more than enough.
Indians generally like to live on lower floors or low rise building bcoz its super convenient.
Yeah but india isn’t developed
If you build more residential space the housing becomes cheaper.
Dude just speaking,
Averagely the skyline of a city talks a lot about the economy of a certain region,
Many European cities have dedicated regions only where you can build sky scrapers,

@@joydeepsarkar3033 yes
Bullsh1t ,do you assume the skyscrapers only for residential,the place where I live 80% of them are Hotel and Officce. Just few of them are residential I.e Flat/condo. Skyscrapers nowadays are symbolic as a rich, if you go to Singapore and see all the modern skyscrapers you know the place are super rich but they are,go to Kuala Lumpur and Jakarta still has the same impression,but when you go to Mumbai the vibe about super rich place aren’t appears,why? The place aren’t like new ,just few of the skyscrapers are brand new . Frankly speaking Mumbai aren’t first class city.. Mumbai is a capital financial of India ,India is fast growing economy,but the present doesn’t seem so. There are something off.
I always wondered about this but never took time to know why. Thanks
So informative, thanks!
Bangalore has my favorite Indian skyline. It doesn't have many skyscrapers. Most of it's buildings are in the range of 100 to 130 metres in height. But unlike Mumbai, most aren't residential. Most are commercial, leading to glass buildings, giving a better image. Overall, a small but pretty skyline.
You find glass towers appealing?
@@Game_Hero they are much better to look at than some simple ugly residential concrete tower
@@bush.nawaz.t8385 They are also more energy-intensive to heat/cool and maintain. You can definitely have well-designed concrete skyscrapers - see the Empire State Building.
Not really true? Where are the commercial skyscrapers in Bangalore apart from the handful in and around UB city?
It's mostly just residential tall buildings and offices are tech parks with 10 storey buildings in most of the city.
I think you confused Gachibowli in Hyderabad with Bangalore. Except UB city bengaluru got none like you've mentioned
As far as I have seen in every country the area which have tallest skyscrapers they are called downtown area where housing price is so high where middle class or lower cannot afford it. In India like country where middle class and lower population are the majority ones, there building skyscrapers are unaffordable ones. Only if skyscrapers can be made affordable for Indian general population then only it makes sense to build those.
Prices are high for skyscrapers in our country precisely because there aren’t enough of them. The ones that do get built therefore are built to cater to the rich otherwise the builder’s ROI would be low.

but now as far as I can analyze and observe, we are also vertically growing and skyscrapers are being built over small city like this
It does not depend on wealth . India has that. But building a sky scraper needs lot more things to fall in place. There are tectonic and earthquake vulnerable zones , thats why we have height restrictions . And honestly in India , the upper floors of many sky scrapers are less preferred . So i guess builders are not interested

Correction, those cities do not really have that many skyscrapers. Europe generally builds very less skyscrapers, might look like a lot coz they are 20-30 concentrated in just one location. This channel has a video on it i think.
@@kracks9852 uh , european cities have it means they have it .
As the city expand horizontally many neighboring areas also get developed
so true...
That's an important point, hardly anyone says it.
They do in Mumbai and Delhi.....this is just one section of a metro area which is medium rise apartment blocks
If Mumbai is concerned about the increase of population density they could restrict the number of dwellings in a plot, rather than floor area. Restricting floor area just means cramming as many houses as possible in a small space. But restricting dwellings means you get bigger dwellings that are more expensive to buy. Not saying ethically that's the ideal, but it would allow development without adding strain to the infrastructure network.
Mumbai is full of different cultures and political background people, so complexities.. As studied says more than half of towers are vacant, therefore, it's better make office spaces residential tower are just investments and no affordable housing possible as of high rise- land prices are skyrocketing and slums or people living there couldnt afford to shift in it.
It’s hard to control how many people get to live in a place!
India needs a Hukou system
Really the population density issue is less due to tall buildings and more due to slums built in encroached land which the government doesn't have control over.

It's better to build small building on larger land areas than tall buildings on small land areas . When too many people live in less areas like in Mumbai, there are traffic jams.
As a indian I hate living in high-rise building living in colony though small house owned by you is good 😊😊
Fully agree. These high rise buildings look so depressing. Can't even imagine living in one of these.
Simple reason is people lose absolute ownership of land which they think is paramount. Even celebrities prefer a mansion instead of buying a floor or penthouse as liquidity value of apartments is very less compared to actual land
What's the point of getting ownership of a piece of land 50 km away from the main city? After you moved to the city from a smaller town 700 km away just because you wanted to be close to the economic opportunities? You squander away your life commuting.
I live in Mexico City, and I have never seen a plot of land lose value over time. You better own your space.
It is a paramount. They are smart.
There is a huge cultural reason, and that is people want to own their own land for the house. Because Indians generally think 60-70 years into the future for their kids and grandkids and whether the property will survive that timeline
This is true.
4:55 Shillong is stricter than most parts of India when it comes to height restrictions on buildings. Given that it’s a Hill Station and in the centre of seismic zone 5, residential buildings can’t be more than 4 stories and commercial buildings can’t be built higher than 5 stories. But it is a beautiful city and pretty clean by Indian standards.
With the Navi Mumbai airport coming soon and the extensive Metro connectivity, Mumbai will soon start to redevelop chawls/old buildings upwards.
Already plans are in place to Change the face of Dharavi all together.
Even without all that Mumbai already has the 5th largest number of skyscrapers in the world. It will overtake Dubai and New York to become 3rd largest in world within few years given the number of skyscrapers now under construction in all three cities.
Similar thing happens to Brazil. Skyscrapers only in a beach resort near Argentina. Apart from that, even megacities have quite modest high-rises (although in the thousands, which makes for quite an impressive skyline anyway)
The difference is that in Brazil the actual demand for housing and office space is relatively low
@@FOLIPE well, the demand for anything anywhere will be "relatively low" compared to India. Even when it's a giant country with a giant economy, like Brazil
Tbh I'm not a huge fan of skyscrapers because the houses/building around it don't get continuous airflow and sunlight and this matters alot.
One crucial thing you missed out is the height of building depends a lot on the width of road around that land in India. More width = more height.
Manhattan has some incredibly narrow streets and incredibly tall buildings...
@@prasad530 Manhattan also smells worse than Calcutta.
When there is a nice and quick metro line to work / school, then nobody would even think of moving to the city centre.
So the main problem is the lack of sophisticated public transport.
Go India. It's the best for future
Mumbai has airport at city center that is why it cannot build skyscrapers in Mumbai
With Indias traffic problems.... imagine how bad it'd be if FSI was higher!
Actually sprawling roads made for cars increase traffic problem even more.
In Germany, private housing does not know skyscrapers. In spain, super high buildings are normal in housing in big cities. Frankfurt knows skyscrapers in the banking center. Mexico and Brasil display examples of high houses with services (such as guards which protect the buildings). I would appreciate a video which compares housing concepts and policies behind.
Hi, The photo at 0:24 isn't from India, It's in Myanmar.
It's India, we have many pagodas here
The idea is to spread development and economic activity rather that everyone living at a single place and overcrowding and narrowing the area where economic activity is. This is to make sure the rural India is not forgotten and kept connected with the progress. As an indian I like this approach because india lives in its villages.
But it creates lots of traffic and pollution.
That clearly doesn't happen. Mumbai is a case in point. Economic activity is concentrated in a few places and people have to commute for hours back and forth to access these places. A very small percentage of Mumbaikars live where they work.

Well Infrastructure development is still on initial stages, but it also being planned on a huge level and are now underconstruction, you might see alot(compared to know) of Skyscrapers after 2030.
Delhi has to grow skyscrapers. At the very least, it needs to have hundreds of 40-50 story buildings. This amount of urban sprawl cannot be tolerated.
How do European cities compare when it comes to FSI? I'd imagine it would be very low except for maybe London or Frankfurt.
Paris and London both allow high-rise buildings in certain areas - but away from their historic centres.
i lived in frankfurt, germany for some years. it is very upsetting that only the super rich elite can lend or buy some apartments in the high rise buildings, there is class segregation. the high rise places are owned by banks or investment companies and super rich. the once wonderful city areas which were full of lively neighbourhoods and historical buildings were destructed to build high rise apartments and they became ghost towns when they build the high rises there and the central station is not far away, which means street criminals have taken over power and sex industry grew fast, just like the drug industry there. you can not walk there safely even in daylight.
the high rise is coslty to maintain, it is bad for children who have no ability to go out and play, mothers can not look out for their kids from windows, the anonymous neighbours do not help, there is no community sense, crimes will not be reported, not even a police will be called etc.
european cities have learned from the negativ sides of high rise skyscrapers build in other countries and limit to build those in europe. even china banned building high rise because they had to make their own experience how costly and uneffective they are.
Building higher will not necessarily solve the housing crisis. Look at New York, for example; home to hundreds of skyscrapers and still the average working class can only dream of renting a home in Manhattan. In India, building higher will only strain the existing resources and infrastructure. The high wind speeds on the higher floors mean that the windows cannot be kept open. So to beat the heat an air conditioner is required. Then where a smaller building will probably have 20-25 houses, a taller one will have 75-100 houses on the same plot of land. So, more peak-hour traffic, more water and electricity drawn, and more sewage discharged per unit area. This would require massive infrastructural upgrades. Though most big buildings have a sewage treatment plant and a dedicated transformer for electricity, they go for their own ground water supply for residents and the massive useless lawns and ornamental plants. Due to this groundwater levels have greatly receded and there are many big apartment complexes, especially in Bangalore, that rely on external water supply through tankers, year-round. Skyscrapers are not a symbol of development but an environmental disaster.
I think the idea is to reduce the housing costs, which doesn't necessarily mean that a majority of people will be able to afford it but it still would impact the overall affordability. Also in case of New York, imagine the extent of the housing crisis if there were less overall floor space or if the number of skycrapers were in double digits. My point is building higher would not necessarily "solve" the housing crisis but it would definitely make a positive impact. However I do agree with your other points related to overall congestion in the city.
I like that Indian cities are organically grown and does not have sky scrapers. A lot of skyscrapers fail and it leads to competitions among builders.
For PUNE both AAI and Defence regulations are uptight.
Don't know when they will be relaxed.
And anyways till a certain extent, we dont need skyscrapers, it will push us towards unsustainable development (Developers and promoters will try to copy Mumbai everywhere and end up with unsold structures)
Rather focus on well designed and future proofed urban sprawl.
India is not building many skyscrapers but there are tons of 20-25 floors buildings are coming up and I'm not complaining.
Sky is literally free real estate
India 🇮🇳 doesn’t want to become developed.. that’s why india is still living in clay houses and running tuktuks

All the cities you mentioned are growing faster than Mumbai. But when it comes to skyscrapers whether current, or those under construction, no city comes close to Mumbai. Mumbai alone has more skyscrapers than rest of Indian cities combined whether you take the total or under construction. Mumbai still has the highest number of billionaires and millionaires in India. But the ecosystem of Mumbai is not good for startups and it has very bad infrastructure and city administration, and there is no slum redevelopment.

I am not a fan of Skyscrapers... but I think for denser cities it's necessary.
Europe and Japan enjoy their extreme density without going ridiculously high.
@@cheshirster They don't have big populations, especially europe, also Japan is pretty high and they would have gone higher if not for earthquakes.
@@cheshirsterEurope's population density only exists because how of how old their cities are. When people designed Paris, it wasn't with two lane roads for cars in mind. So the city is chock full of narrow one ways, hence the ratio of built up area to road area is very high. But when people do urban planning now, nobody's gonna create a city made purely of narrow one ways. And if you take the Paris model and lay it over a city with post-car road design, the density will decrease substantially.

But from a narrow mindset you wont be able to see that.
@@ineed2ventnow what they have done in 10 years??
Let's explain it more clearly.
Bcoz leftist-socialist combo with license raj jeopardize the growth for almost 70 yes but now its late but however infra has started growing for last 10 yrs. Of course it will take more effort and time.
While the bureaucratic restrictions should be called out, reviewed and challenged, there is enough compelling evidence to suggest that skyscrapers don’t nearly offer the value as they are purported to do. Where they offer more density, they take away community, change access to sunlight, require significantly more material to construct, and entirely alter the spaces in between them. So if pure density from a housing standpoint is the outcome, yes they’re great. But what low-rise cities offer in community onground outweighs densely packed towers.
We can take urban planning lessons from cities like Barcelona and Paris. Their recent shifts in thinking about cities, roads and how a community should function are moving more towards cleaner, greener cities with less cars while maintaining a limit on the height of buildings.
Indians only talk big..
but on ground they don’t show much progress..

Sky is free real estate and India is a poor country. India needs skyscrapers
No inhertiance tax means land (with houses) is better than flats. It doesn't depreciate in long term.
As living in Bangalore from a decade, skyscrapers will only make people for uncomfortable and put huge pressure on infrastructure.
It has already been developing outskirts with job opportunities. More people can afford beautiful, lot spacious and secure homes this way. I personally never felt like going to main Bangalore city, as there is no need. If there were skyscrapers with offices, it would be very bad for city and its people.
Government should instead spread these job opportunities to other second tier cities instead, reduce number of floors further if have to.
Banglore can't even imagine
There's an India beyond Mumbai.
