It was round the foundation stone of the city. The bastion, on the outside fifty-three feet high, used to contain a stepwell known as the Manek kuva, seventy seven feet round. By a change in the course of Sabarmati river the stepwell became dry and in 1866 was filled up. There was a water channel near bastion which brought water to royal baths in past.[6][7] In 1869, the Ellis Bridge, the first bridge across the river was constructed near the bastion. Later Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation declared Ellis bridge and its boundary, Manek Burj and the natural water drain near one of the banks of Sabarmati river as protected sites in May 1989. The original steel bridge was narrow and not suited for heavy motorized traffic and so it was closed in 1997 and the new concrete bridge was constructed on either side of the steel bridge in 1999. The bastion was partially broken for expansion of the bridge.[1][7][8] After earthquake in 2001 and riots in 2002, many people believed that the city suffered due to the damage to the bastion. So the bastion was restored in 2003.[9] CultureChandan and Rajesh Nath; the 13th generation descendants of the saint, performs puja and hoists the flag on Manek Burj on the foundation day of the city and Vijayadashami every year.[10][3][4][9][11] References1. ^1 {{cite news | title=Ahmedabad's quiet birthday at Manek Burj | publisher=dna | date=27 February 2013 | url=http://www.dnaindia.com/ahmedabad/report-ahmedabads-quiet-birthday-at-manek-burj-1805154 | accessdate=7 January 2015}} 2. ^{{cite book | title=India Guide Gujarat | publisher=India Guide Publications | year=2007 | pages=93–94 | isbn= 9780978951702 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gZRLGZNZEoEC&pg=PA93&dq=manek+chowk+ahmedabad&hl=en&sa=X&ei=7bX1UOO4NcLmrAeAhoCwDA&ved=0CDYQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=manek%20chowk%20ahmedabad&f=false | editor=Desai, Anjali H.}} 3. ^1 {{cite news | url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/baba-maneknath-s-kin-keep-alive-600yr-old-tradition/698967 | title=Baba Maneknath’s kin keep alive 600-yr old tradition | work=The Indian Express | date=18 October 2010 | accessdate=21 February 2013 | author=More, Anuj}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-10-07/ahmedabad/30257006_1_flag-foundation-stone-puja | title=Flags changed at city's foundation by Manek Nath baba's descendants | work=The Times of India | date=7 October 2011 | agency=TNN | accessdate=21 February 2013}} 5. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.ahmedabadmirror.com/index.aspx?Page=article§name=News%20-%20A%201000%20Salutes§id=68&contentid=2010022620100226182744376d3de031 | title=Multi-layered expansion | work=Ahmedabad Mirror | date=26 February 2010 | agency=AM | accessdate=21 February 2013 | author=Ruturaj Jadav and Mehul Jani}} 6. ^{{cite book|title=Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency: Ahmedabad|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EL4IAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA276|year=1879|publisher=Government Central Press|page=276}} 7. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.ahmedabadmirror.com/index.aspx?Page=article§name=News%20-%20City§id=3&contentid=201002042010020402552458c42a24a3 | title=Bridges - To past, present & Future | work=Ahmedabad Mirror | date=4 February 2010 | accessdate=4 April 2013 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131103150901/http://www.ahmedabadmirror.com/index.aspx?Page=article§name=News%20-%20City§id=3&contentid=201002042010020402552458c42a24a3 | archivedate=3 November 2013 | df= }} 8. ^{{cite news | url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-09-02/surat/30105331_1_hope-bridge-vivekanand-bridge-steel-bridge | title=Hope lies in Ellisbridge | work=The Times of India | date=2 September 2011 | accessdate=4 April 2013 | author=John, Paul}} 9. ^1 2 {{cite news | title=Ahmedabad says abracadabra | website=Times of India Publications | date=27 February 2011 | first=Parth|last=Shastri|url=http://lite.epaper.timesofindia.com/mobile.aspx?article=yes&pageid=2&edlabel=TOIA&mydateHid=27-02-2011&pubname=&edname=&articleid=Ar00202&format=&publabel=TOI | accessdate=7 January 2015}} 10. ^{{cite web | first=Lakshmi | last=Ajay| title=Ahmedabad city turns 604 | newspaper=The Indian Express | date=27 February 2015 | url=http://indianexpress.com/article/cities/ahmedabad/ahmedabad-city-turns-604/ | accessdate=29 May 2018 }} 11. ^{{cite news| title=Manek Burj's sorry state fails to move AMC | publisher=DNA | date=19 April 2012| url=http://dnasyndication.com/dna/article/DNAHM53975 | accessdate=7 January 2015}}
