Anna Nagar
Developed in the 1960s as one of Chennai's first planned townships, Anna Nagar is named after C.N. Annadurai, the former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. The neighbourhood is laid out in a grid pattern with wide roads, making it one of the most navigable areas in the city. The iconic Anna Nagar Tower, built for the 1968 World Tamil Conference, stands as a landmark. Anna Nagar is well served by the Chennai Metro's Blue Line, and its central location makes it a preferred residential and commercial hub.
