In 1999, Tardeo and the city of Mumbai witnessed the opening of its first full-fledged shopping mall Crossroads, converted from an old pharmaceutical plant belonging to 'Roche'. The mall was an instant success and it attracted loads of people from all corners of the city, however the mall eventually contributed to traffic and pollution in the area. Now Crossroads is known as Brand Factory. Old dilapidated mills and structures are now being demolished by property developers to build residential high rises, similar to other areas of Mumbai.^{[citation needed]}
