Larsen & Tourbro

Our team is based out of Flat No. 1B at 4/60 Chanditalalane in Kolkata. If you’ve ever walked down the lanes in this part of the city, you know how narrow and winding they can be. It’s a very traditional neighborhood, and being here at Larsen & Tourbro feels a lot different than being in a modern business park. The office is inside a residential-style building, which makes it feel much more like a home than a corporate headquarters. We have our files, our computers, and our tea mugs spread out across the rooms. The 700 040 area has a lot of character, and we’ve settled into the rhythm of the place quite well. You can hear the sounds of the neighborhood all day—the vendors, the traffic, and the neighbors talking. It’s a bit cramped sometimes when we have everyone in for a meeting, but we make it work. We don’t have a fancy lobby or a bunch of assistants. Usually, you just walk in and find whoever you need to talk to. We handle a lot of the local planning and administrative stuff from this flat. It’s a quiet spot for the most part, away from the main road’s noise, which helps when we need to concentrate on the technical drawings or the logistics of the latest project. It’s just a regular office for regular people doing their bit in the middle of this busy city.
