Mannady at present

Mannady's history is rooted in a geographical transformation in the 1770s when a mound near the site of present-day Chennai Central Station was flattened, and its soil was used to fill a ditch in the George Town area. This newly developed, soil-rammed (mann adi) area became known as Mannady, giving it a name derived from its formation as real estate. The area remains a part of George Town and is a busy commercial hub today
