Every Building Has Its History
Welcome to 16C Canal Street!
The history of this building dates back to the 1930s when Shri Anil Chandra Neogy constructed and owned this house, which formed a part of the Brojendra Nath Estate, named after his father, Shri Brojendra Nath Neogy.
The plan was sanctioned by Calcutta Corporation in 1937 and finally given shape and completed by a British Architect in the year 1940.
This was the abode for the officials of "Westington House Saxby Farmer Ltd" for many years, who pioneered the Electro-magnetic Brake Systems for Indian Railways.
After the British left, this was home to a few Anglo-Indian and Goan families for about 18-20 years.
The mid and late 70s saw most of them immigrating to Europe or Australia.
It was finally reconstructed and given a modern facelift in the year 2023. The reconstruction process started in 2021 and took about 2 - 2.5 years to finish.
