• As there are almost no open or green spaces around city center, the last project is
making use of the specious wasted space in the middle of intersection in order to create a
small square for people to sit, hang out and other recreational activities such as taking a
coffee. This small park –like square has been planned at one story below the street level to
be partly protected from the noise and pollution. A few shops, a coffeshop and a restaurant
have been provided in this small park which is accessed by two circular ramps.
