This area is densely populated with residential houses, apartments and commercials markets. The town planning of Federal B-Area dates back to 1953s when Karachi was still the capital of Pakistan and many new neighborhoods were getting built up to house the employees of the federal government. The present-day neighborhoods of North Nazimabad and Federal-B-Area were all part of this vision to give Karachi a well planned capital city infrastructure. Another aspect of Federal-B-Area's geography is that Shahrah-i-Pakistan runs through it. This main artery of the city roughly bisects Federal-B-Area into two zones. Read More Read Less
