  • Features the largest car park and private gas pipeline network in the country 
  • The Metrozone Dome – first of its kind preview for home buyers

Ushering in a totally new lifestyle paradigm in living spaces, realty major Ozonegroup launched ‘The Metrozone’ in Chennai today.  Spread over a sprawling 42 acres at Anna Nagar, ‘The Metrozone’ is the largest mixed, integrated development in the heart of Chennai offering residential options of Apartments, penthouses and commercial space for hospitality, retail and offices. 

The project was launched in Chennai, unveiling the unique ‘Metrozone Dome’ by Mr. Deepak Parekh, Chairman, HDFC, in the presence of Mr. S Vasudevan, Managing Director, Ozonegroup, senior management of Ozonegroup and other dignitaries and invitees. The 50,000 sq. ft. ‘The Metrozone’ dome has been created on site to give prospective home buyers not just a view of the model apartments but also a first hand experience of the exclusive lifestyle that the Ozonegroup has envisioned for its customers. ‘The Metrozone’ dome, concept modeled along a hangar structure, is itself a novel experience. It showcases 4 model apartments, a designer home decorator’s retail gallery featuring some of the world’s top brands in home fitments, to-scale model view of the ‘The Metrozone’ project, a viewer gallery for a full view of the development site and the full-service marketing offices of Ozonegroup.

‘The Metrozone’ is being developed as a self contained township with 1,600+ residential units across 29 towers (25 towers in first phase) of G+16 structure and 1.2 million square feet of commercial complex including a mall, multiplex and office space. A swanky star hotel within the complex will bring more convenience to both the home and commercial residents.  ‘The Metrozone’ has many firsts to its credit, including the largest car park in India with over 6,000 capacity in 3 basement levels and the largest private piped gas network. 

According to Mr. Vasudevan, Managing Director, Ozonegroup, “the vision of the home is created in the heart of the home buyer even before she steps out to search the prospective developments. Most times the vision remains a dream not so much due to monetary constraints but because of lack of customization options, sub-optimal understanding of design and aesthetics on the part of the developer and the lack of ease to access the right fitments.  At ‘The Metrozone’, Ozonegroup have taken great pains to address this mismatch, starting with the customer’s first experience of ‘The Metrozone’ lifestyle at the dome.”

‘The Metrozone’ offers hitherto unknown levels of customization for a project of this scale, sensitive & responsive counseling in design expertise and also easy access to some of the best home décor brands right on the site. ‘The Metrozone’ is also the first to offer a swimming pool dedicated to women and the largest club house of 60,000 sq.ft.”

“Our customer oriented offerings brings together painstaking attention to detail, on time delivery, high levels of customization either in classical or contemporary style, best in class design and technologies with the added comfort of global standards in estate and facility management.  We believe ‘The Metrozone’ experience will raise the bar to totally new levels on what is standard among the premium living spaces in the city.” he added. 

According to Mr. Sudarshan KS, Chief Operating Officer, Ozonegroup, “Utmost care has been taken in the design of the units in ‘The Metrozone’. To enhance quality of construction, Ozonegroup will be adopting concrete wall design using metal formwork. Significant research has been done in other aspects of construction including internal and external finishes, water treatment, waste/garbage collection and treatment/disposal. All units in ‘The Metrozone’ come with pre-conduiting for air-conditioning units. Our key differentiator is in providing abundant infrastructure and addressing the most important needs of the residents – water, electricity, parking and security to name a few. Ozonegroup is investing significantly to make all projects environment friendly, with rain water harvesting, solar/heating and lighting, waste optimization and other eco friendly features”
