India Habitat Center.New Dehli

We are situated over at 1149, Lodhi Road Complex. It’s a big place, and if you aren’t careful, you might get lost in the hallways. People come here for all sorts of things, meetings, art shows, or just to sit in the courtyard. The Lodhi Road area is pretty well known in New Delhi, and we’ve been part of it for a long time. It’s a mix of offices and public spaces. We spend a lot of time keeping the air conditioning running and making sure the lights stay on in the various rooms. There’s always an event going on, so it stays pretty busy from Monday to Sunday. It’s not like a regular office building where everyone leaves at five. We have cleaners and security guards who are always around. Sometimes the elevators act up, but we get them fixed eventually. It’s a place where a lot of different groups come together. We handle the day-to-day stuff that keeps the building open to everyone. It’s a lot of work to manage such a big space, and we don't always get everything perfect. But the gardens look okay most of the year if the weather isn't too dry. We just try to keep the place tidy for the people who visit. It’s a landmark for many, though to us, it’s just the place where we work every day. We make sure the doors are unlocked and the chairs are in place for the next group coming in.
