বিনোদিনী থিয়েটার Binodinī Thiyeṭār, formerly the Star Theatre
One of the earliest institutions of commercial Bengali theatre, along with the Minerva Theatre. It was also one of the places where the first motion pictures in Bengal, made by Hira Lal Sen, were screened. The Star Theatre was later named after Binodini Dasi, fondly called Noṭī Binodinī (নটী বিনোদিনী), due to her close professional connection with the theatre.

Mohun Bagan Villa
A memorial housed in the palace that gave birth to one of Kolkata's premier football clubs. The name "Mohun Bagan" comes from that garden that belonged to Gopi Mohun Deb of the Sovabazar Raj family, which was replaced by the present building built by jute merchant Kirti Chandra Mitra. In front of the building, there's a group sculpture named "Amar Ekadash" (literally the "immortal eleven"), depicting the eleven team members of the Mohun Bagan Athletic Club that won the IFA Shield in 1911, which was a historic win against East Yorks, symbolising Indian nationalism back then.
