Area Overview
What makes Vishrantwadi special
Vishrantwadi sits at the junction where the Alandi road meets the airport and Yerwada sides, and it is the most established part of this belt — settled well before Dhanori or Wagholi built out.
Defence land runs through and around it, including the College of Military Engineering side, which has kept tree cover and lower density along several stretches.
It works as the practical middle option here: real retail and services of its own, Yerwada and Kalyani Nagar within fifteen minutes, and the airport about eight kilometres.
