Parel, the locality of Mumbai that is emblematic of the rapid gentrification of the city, has proposed to be a suburban train terminus.

This will result in decongestion and quicker dispersal of passengers. A large number of patients who come to for medical treatment in Parel, people working in corporate business centers and commercial hubs, flower market vendors and commuters of both Central and Western Railway will benefit from Parel being a junction point.

Parel has significant historical background of textile mills, which is here celebrated through the architecture. Roof of the station is designed in the form of weaving threads of textile productions. Skylight is proposed through the voids between these threads and solar panels are planned on the top of the roof aligned to the threads which helps to generate energy required for the station to function.
