Burrabzar is bounded by Posta and Jorabagan on the north, Jorasanko and Kolutola on the east, B.B.D. Bagh on the south and Hooghly River on the west.
Lalbazar and Bowbazar are at the south-west corner of Burrabazar.
The neighbourhood is adjacent to Howrah Bridge (renamed Rabindra Setu).
One description of its boundaries puts it as follows: from Posta in the north to Canning Street in the south and from Strand Road in the west to Chitpur Road (renamed Rabindra Sarani) in the east.
Within this rough boundary it is a world in itself.

Cutting right across Burrabazar is Harrison Road, which runs straight from Howrah Bridge to Sealdah Station.
It was constructed between December 1889 and 1892, sweeping away many an overcrowded tenement and festering lane.
It is of the uniform breadth of 75 feet and named after Sir Henry Harrison, chairman of the corporation, by whom the scheme was inaugurated and matured.
It has been renamed after Mahatma Gandhi.
