The site is located on M.G. Road, Dhanukarwadi, Kandivali (W). There is a government hospital, on the opposite side. The adjacent has a bus station, and a share rickshaw stand. Everyone makes their way to the shrine for prayers from the hospital. The metro station is also near the shrine (approximately 400 meters). The adjacent road has small shops that support local economies. The shrine has peepal tree and Barghat tree that supports the structure. Just behind the shrine there is a bank.

The collage becomes a tool for understanding the site; using it, I was able to recognize my syntax i.e. staircase. My design iterations looked like an object, placed on the site. I made an effort to make my design flow. I attempted to use my syntax (staircase) to integrate a bus stop and a shrine into my design.
