History


Nandanam seems to have originated in the piece of land known as Gambier's Gardens named after Chief Justice Edward John Gambier who owned the property from 1836 to 1850. The township got its name in the 1950s as a result of the housing development efforts instituted during the Chief Ministership of Rajagopalachari which concentrated on developing a green Chennai.
