Calling the world we live in an “urban jungle” seems a bit too much of a cliché, and sometimes you just wish it can in fact go as quiet as a jungle at night. The name might sound fancy, but there is absolutely nothing that pretty about it. Especially when you consider the sore images that are clad in concrete and plastic and lack even a semblance of green tinge to it. But when you look at a project like the City Square Urban Park, developed by Ong&Ong Pte Ltd, in the heart of hustling and bustling Singapore, it sure gives you hope.
This proposed magnificent green park is bestowed with a multitude of green features that will enthrall you to no end. The park is designed not just to show the beauty of a clean and eco-friendly lifestyle but will charm you with its style quotient as well. The park links Singapore’s MRT tunnel to the vivacious mall that is being built around and with attractions like the eco-wall and green roof, this is sure set to spread plenty of joy and delight.
The Green Maze inside is designed for kids to get lost in the planet-friendly world, the eco-wall allows them to learn about recycling and conservation hands-on while the Butterfly Garden allows them to take a sneak peek at South East Asia’s rare wildlife riches. The eco-roof is loaded with solar panels, low-E glass panels and a green roof which spread the message of clean energy.
The City Square Urban Park taking shape should be a spectacle to behold when all done, and the words “green” and “eco” have been frequented in describing the park. It is simply because of the extensive nature in which it incorporates these features.
