It is not skyscrapers and glass Malls that will transform Indian cities at scale. If we want widespread upgradation of our cities including tier 2 and 3, we need to built such mixed use building en masse, and ensure they don't get covered in posters while the sidewalks in front of the should be kept even and neat. Modification to emulate local architecture should also be done.
And to clarify, it can't be 1-2 buildings, the entire street / zip code should be brought to a uniform building standard of such type of buildings.
