Though restaurants occupy floors on many residential buildings in Banasree, none of them have their own parking. Guests at these restaurants often park their vehicles on the road, blocking it. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi

The ground floor of the building is taken up by a restaurant and a signboard for the eatery is hung from the balcony on the second floor. It is a common sight in many Banasree buildings. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi
