A Lost piece of history is set to return to Mumbai’s streets. The BMC has decided to restore the famous Fitzgerald Fountain at its original location in Kalbadevi. The fountain and its lamp-post, erected in 1867, were one of the several relics of the British colonial era which were removed as a part of the Samyukta Maharashtra Movement in the 1960s. Civic officials have now got permission from the Mumbai Heritage Restoration Committee (MHCC) to restore and move the fountain from its current resting spot in the backyard of the Bhau Daji Lad Museum.
