Casa Di Ringhiera
The casa di ringhiera (Italian pl. case di ringhiera, literally "guard rail houses") is a type of popular housing characterized by several flats sharing the same open gallery on each floor. Such galleries run the whole length of the building, provide access to the individual housing units and face an inner courtyard, which, in some buildings, provided the only access to the toilets. In most cases, however, the toilets were at the end of the gallery and were shared by the inhabitants of a single floor. The vast majority of such buildings has been renovated, with bathrooms created inside the flats. Tenants of Casa di ringhiera are able to see most of their neighbors from their flats, and the buildings are known for their communal living. Case di ringhiera typically have three floors (but can have up to six) over a ground floor intended for commercial use. Typically, they have no balconies on the outer side of the building, which, together with their colour (they were traditional ...

The first chawls were constructed in the early 1700s, as housing for industrial workers. History Chawls are rooted in the history of Bombay's (now Mumbai) colonial past. Workers migrated to Bombay from far and wide, as it was the center of trade for the East India Company.
