New Delhi, The Delhi Tourism department is set to get a swanky new head office in the heart of Connaught Place, with a proposed ₹ 150-crore office building coming up on the vacant space beside the iconic Coffee Home, a popular food stop established in 1989.
The new building will come up on the open space within the existing premises on Baba Kharak Singh Road, without affecting Coffee Home, which will continue to operate from its present location, an official said.
Established in 1989, Coffee Home has remained a familiar food stop for people visiting Connaught Place, particularly office-goers and local residents looking for reasonably priced meals. The proposed building will be used to accommodate the staff of the Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation , which operates Coffee Home, and provide them with essential facilities. The corporation has cited a shortage of adequate and suitable office space for the project. The outlet is known for its freshly brewed filter coffee and South Indian dishes.
