Chromepet
Chromepet derives its name from the Chrome Leather Company that once operated here, and has grown from an industrial outpost into one of south Chennai's most populated suburbs. Its strategic location along the GST Road and the Chennai suburban railway corridor makes it a preferred residential choice for working professionals. Chromepet Railway Station is among the busiest suburban stations in the city, and the locality's commercial spine along GST Road is lined with retail stores, restaurants, and service establishments.
