Mosque Road is a prominent road in Frazer Town and the more the city grows, the more snazzier this road becomes. The road begins at a junction mid-point on Coles Road and ends where it meet Pottery Road near the Bangalore East Railway Station covering a distance of a little over a kilometre. The entire stretch of the road has become a leisure and shopping hub over the years. The road gets its name from Hajee Sir Ismail Sait Masjid (Mosque). Hajee Sir Ismail Sait, a philanthropist of the Cutchi Memon community raised the mosque about 100 years ago, with his own funds. He built the mosque for dwellers of the locality, now called Pulakeshi Nagar (also called Frazer Town). After the mosque came up, the road was named Hajee Sir Ismail Sait Mosque Road, in short, Mosque Road.

Late Hajee Ismail Sait was knighted by the Queen of England for his social services, including construction of the Gosha Hospital. He was nominated as the member of the Madras Legislative Council in 1911. In 1923, he was conferred the title of Fakhr-ut-Tujjar by the Government of Mysore. The highest honour came when the King of England conferred upon him the honour of a Knight at Buckingham Palace.

In one corner of the junction of Coles Road and Mosque Road, you find a corner stone which says that Frazer Town was established as a township in 1910 and named after MSM Frazer, a Resident of Mysore State.
The big guns of the retail industry have invaded this road - Subhiksha, Heritage Fresh, Fab Mall, Spencer’s Super, Kwality Walls, Cafe Coffee Day, Barista amidst other homegrown trendy shops and boutiques. Zapak Digital Entertainment Ltd, an online gaming portal, has launched its first self-owned Gameplex on this road. The interiors of the Gameplex, which have a 50 seating capacity, are made in sync with the dynamics of the gaming culture.
Despite modernity creeping in on this road, some relics of the past continue to survive such as a few old trees and a couple of colonial bungalows. There is also the stone building of Hajee Sir Ismail Sait Government Urdu Model Primary Boys and Girls School. It has now been adopted and managed by Hasanath Education Society and Hasanath Group of Colleges. The premises also accommodates the Hajee Sir Ismail Sait Nursery School. The Bethesda Assembly Church and a couple of small tea stalls are also a few relics of the past.
