There are many prominent buildings like Devdrishti, Dev Aashirwad, Neelkamal, Keshav Garden, Laxmi Kalash CHS etc. Navade colony is on NH4 highway and connects to Sion Panvel Expressway via Taloja link road. Usually there is heavy traffic of trailers and trucks due to JNPT, oil refineries as well as, nearby MIDC area, but once the NH4 road widening and flyover is completed and proposed service roads are constructed, much lighter traffic is expected.
There is also smell problem from nearby Taloja MIDC for which Navade and Kharghar/Kalamboli residents are fighting. Nearby Kasadi river is passing through Navade node but this river has contaminated water and the aqua life is totally dead due to careless attitude of the factories in Taloja MIDC.
Recently CIDCO had started to construct a holding pond in Navade near Devdrishti apartment but left it half done after some works. The internal roads have been in too poor state waiting for the awarded contractor to start construction work.
CIDCO has developed a beautiful garden with children play area with slides and other equipments. Although small, this garden is having a jogging track, benches and lush green lawn. Unlike other CIDCO nodes. There is an indoor playzone and family entertainment zone named "Happy Town." recently open in Navade where families can spend their time instead of going far for malls. There are plots reserved for Police station, market, temple and post office but is not at all developed from CIDCO. Every Thursday and Saturday there is market which sells vegetables, household items, clothes, bags, shoes etc.
Almost all types of shops are opened in Navade node and it is self contained with very less dependency of travelling to other nodes.
Also there is one 6 bed full-fledged hospital Anand Hospital in Navade apart from various clinics.
Heavy vehicles and trailers are parked illegally at the internal roadside for which government should take action to avoid inconvenience to Navade residences.
