This
$303 million ecological park was planned
to educate users
about the local ecology and the importance of ecological conservation,
provide recreation for the public, and at the same time enhance and preserve
the natural environment of the site. Although the site is relatively large,
the geological configuration and high density development restrict the size
and features that can be included if the existing environment is to be
preserved. The MENG Analysis study found the
design
to be a
well-conceived solution for a complex site, but offered numerous other
valuable, creative proposals—completely in keeping with the ecological and
conservation goals of the park—
to improve the project.
