Lal Mahal, the fortified residence of Shivaji, was situated in Kasba Peth.
[4] There is a story about the Kasba Ganpati: Some children had brought cows to the area for grazing, and found an idol of Ganapati.
Hence, Dadoji Konddeo built a pendol in front of the idol; this is where the Kasba Ganpati Temple is located today.
[5] The part of the Peth near the Mutha river is known as Kumbhar Wada (locality of the earthen pot makers).
Skilled metal craftsmen (known as Tambat) known for crafting utensils out of brass and copper also reside there.There is also a tailor's lane in the peth.
