Ganapathy: Coimbatore's Planned Western Suburb
Ganapathy, located 12 km west of Coimbatore city centre, was developed by the Tamil Nadu Housing Board in the 1980s with a grid-planned layout reminiscent of Anna Nagar in Chennai. Wide roads, systematic plot numbering, and consistent zoning have preserved the locality's livability character despite decades of growth.
