An old limestone arch spans a lane in Mumbai's Cumballa Hill area, leading toward the B. D. Petit Parsee General Hospital, according to Atlas Obscura. The hospital's foundation stone was laid in 1907 by Sir George Clarke, then Governor of Mumbai. The arch is believed to date from the early years of the 20th century, and the hospital played an important role during the bubonic plague outbreak in Mumbai in that era. The excerpt gave no further detail on the arch's construction or restoration.
