Cooke Town
Cooke Town is a suburb of Bangalore Cantonment, in Bangalore North-East, India, established when the Bangalore Civil and Military Station was governed by the Madras Government. Cooke Town is named after G H Cooke, President of the Bangalore Civil and Military Station Municipality between 1928 to 1934, with the Mayo Hall being constructed during his tenure. The suburb, along with other suburbs of the Bangalore Cantonment such as Fraser Town, Cox Town, etc. has seen dynamic changes over last few years with large British Raj era bungalows being demolished to build luxury apartments. These developments have resulted in large scale tree-felling. However, Cooke Town still manages to retain some of its colonial charm. Cooke Town is a posh suburb with plenty greenery, parks, educational institutions, hospitals and is at close proximity to the Bangalore East Railway Station and the Bangalore CBD. According to Colliers International, Cooke Town is one of Bangalore's most costliest suburbs, with the cost of property being in the range to INR 20000-25000 per sq.ft (in June 2015), just slightly lesser than the Bangalore CBD.
