India, Oct. 28 -- Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) has shortlisted six international architecture firms for landscaping the Mumbai Coastal Road, a project that will transform 53 hectares (130 acres) of reclaimed land into open public spaces.

Nearly a year after the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) flagship Mumbai Coastal Road project was opened to traffic, RIL was selected to design and develop the surrounding green spaces stretching from Priyadarshini Park to Worli. For this, RIL has shortlisted six global firms from the Netherlands, other countries in Europe, North Korea, South Korea, and the United States. Among them, Cozy Designs from the Netherlands was introduced to civic officials along with other firms last week.
