Review №1

Construction commenced in the year 1972-1973. I was then a toddler.Southern Avenue was a haven of peace and quiet in those years of another century - so long ago that it all seems now to be a dream. So quiet; so peaceful: traffic stopped altogether in the afternoons during weekdays even. In the evenings, by 7:30 PM, all was again quiet. Dark night would descend by 8:30. All folks decent would be firmly indoors by then.We shifted residence and into Sarovar in 1975, October, with a good celebration of Grihapravesh. It was my fathers first real-estate purchase; he was incredibly proud of it. And we all were incredibly proud of him.A breeze would begin blowing, from the south westerly regions, even on the hottest of afternoons. A look in that direction would reveal only trees vanishing into a distant haze; and beyond that, the eternal, endless blue sky as it descended to meet land upon a far away horizon - to my young eyes, impossibly far away.Sarovar remains a very well maintained building. It is administered almost effortlessly; and is essentially a conservative apartment block populated almost entirely by Bengalis. All residents seem to display that solid middle-class virtue called respectability; helpful, courteous, kind-hearted; inclined to treat the occasional stranger with consideration. Of course, now - there are a couple of cantankerous old sods with all their toes in the grave. One must ignore these superannuated battle-axes, and leave them to stew in their body odours till their deaths release us from their malodorous presence. But such individuals are present everywhere; the world is filled with them.Shops, markets, restaurants, temples, stadium, parkways, arterial roads, railway station - everything is close by Sarovar. Even the crematoria is not far; if one wishes to drop in, one can do so without inconveniencing ones relatives too much.The building of my childhood; lost somewhere amongst its floors, garages, passages - remains etched the memories of pitter patter of my then tiny feet.Sarovar lives in my heart.
