Pune Cantonment is approximately 3000 Acre land that was located outside the old Pune city at its inception by British in the erstwhile British ruled India.
Taking cue from developing of defense land towards public housing from US and Philippines, the idea behind this pro bono Vision Plan is to explore the possibility of envisioning public land to provide housing both for Defense Staff as well as lower income groups.
The premise behind this idea is to use the existing assets in the form of public lands towards developing the housing opportunities. The vision looks at developing half of the existing land to meet the needs of housing for Army staff, one fourth towards affordable housing and remaining one fourth towards private sector development to monetize the existing assets.
