Brigade marketing team has
a new office
From 2 August, the Brigade marketing team has started operating
from their new office on the 10th floor of Brigade Towers.
As the Brigade team is rapidly growing in size with many exciting
new projects being planned, the need for additional space that
would offer greater focus for the marketing team was being felt
for a few months now. The interiors of our new office have been
done by Praxis, who have also designed the Brigade School.
Beautifying Bangalore
We have in the past tried to do our bit towards enhancing the city's aesthetics.
The beautification and landscaping of the approach road to Bangalore Airport's
departure terminal was just one such effort in this direction in the recent past.
We have now commissioned a few bus shelters carrying soothing visuals and social
messages. (Shown in the picture is just one example) This is yet another effort
in our commitment to making Bangalore more beautiful. We firmly believe that
every little bit helps in making our city a better place to live in.
A guide for civic awareness
In our
continuing efforts to contribute to society, we have sponsored
5,000 copies of "My Bangalore, My Rights, My Responsibility".
The guide gives information about various government agencies
providing public services and the rights and responsibilities
of citizens. The guide has been published by Swabhimana, an interactive
forum established in 1995 by Bangalore Development Authority
and Bangalore Mahanagara Palike.
Brigade contributes two new Golf
carts for KGA
The Brigade Group has contributed two new golf carts to the
Karnataka Golf Association (KGA). The two carts carrying the
Brigade insignia are now available to golfers at KGA. We hope
the golf carts will make moving around the large green and picturesque
course a pleasurable experience.
One of the two carts is a two-seater while the other can seat
four.
Brigade in two property exhibitions
Realty, the half-yearly property and home loans exhibition organised
by Karnataka Ownership Apartments Promoters Association (KOAPA)
was held at the Grand Ashok hotel on 27 and 28 March. The Brigade
stall at the exhibition was much appreciated by visitors to the
exhibition.
Brigade also participated in Property Affaire, a three-day realty
fair, organised by Relio Quick in association with ICICI Bank,
from July 23 to 25, at the Koramangala Indoor Stadium in Bangalore.
A silver for Team Brigade!
Team Brigade was the runner-up in the 8-team knock-out cricket
tournament held on 29 and 30 May. They reached the final defeating
WS Atkins in the quarter-final, and Venkataramanan Associates
in the semi-final, before losing to C & T Architects, in
a well-fought final.
The tournament, held at Loyola Grounds
on Bannerghatta Road, was conducted by Venkataramanan Associates,
and sponsored by
Anchor. The series saw some intense moments of cricket as well
as much enthusiasm from members of the eight participating teams—and
all their supporters.
Work commenced on 24th Main extension
An easier, shorter access to Brigade Millennium
Work
on the extension of 24th Main, J.P. Nagar, has begun. The road,
once constructed, will provide a much shorter access to Brigade
Millennium from the Ring Road reducing about a kilometre compared
to the Tank Bund Road through Puttenahalli.
