  • Understanding User Needs
    DESIGN & BEST PRACTICES 76 Adding Value to Parks Through Understanding User Needs Adding Value to Parks Through Understanding User Needs Text by Victor Tan Images as credited For city dwellers who live in countries endowed with scenic countrysides and landscapes, some travelling would get them away from the urban surroundings. In Singapore, visiting parks is perhaps the most practical way of staying close to nature. The presence of parks contributes to the quality of life in different ways. Besides the environmental and ecological benefits, parks bring notable social and psychological benefits to city dwellers, and are increasingly recognised as an important component of a liveable urban environment. While such benefits can be generalised, a park is seldom the same to two different park users. In fact, a park is almost never designed to cater to a single group of users, but rather, planned to cater to a diverse group of park users within its population catchment. Sometimes, park design is also influenced by its inherent environ- mental, social or heritage features. However, it is rare for post-design and post-construc- tion studies to be conducted to evaluate if the original design intents of parks have been met through park usage and user perception studies, largely because landscape architects are seldom ABOvE Tree-top Walk in Central Catchment Nature Reserve (Photo: National Parks Board, Singapore). involved in the post-construction management opposite, top LEFT & RIGHT West Coast Park (Photos: National Parks Board, Singapore). of parks. opposite, Bottom Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden in Singapore Botanic Gardens (Photo: National Parks Board, Singapore).

  • 1 to Be Embargoed Till 25 February 2012, 10Am MEDIA FACTSHEET
    To be embargoed till 25 February 2012, 10am MEDIA FACTSHEET Park Connector Network Implemented by the National Parks Board (NParks), the Park Connector Network is an island-wide network of linear open spaces around major residential areas, linking up parks and nature sites in Singapore. It brings people closer to green spaces, enhancing recreational opportunities for all, and is an important part of our plans to transform Singapore into a ‘City in a Garden’. NParks has completed 200km of park connectors around the island, providing users with a network of green corridors and a wider choice of landscapes and distances for recreation. The North Eastern Riverine Loop is the fourth loop of park connectors developed by NParks after the Northern Explorer Loop (2010), Eastern Coastal Loop (2007) and Western Adventure Loop (2009). Over the next five years, the NParks plans to build another 100 km of park connectors. Three more loops of park connectors are in the pipeline. North Eastern Riverine Loop The 26km North Eastern Riverine Loop is situated in the Northeastern region of Singapore, which follows the natural coastline of Punggol Beach and the river banks of Sungei Punggol and Sungei Serangoon on the West and East side respectively. It encompasses Buangkok, Punggol, Hougang and Sengkang Towns. The loop consists of Punggol Park Connector (6.1km), Punggol Promenade (4.9km), Serangoon Park Connector (2.3km), Sungei Serangoon Park Connector (2.1km), Buangkok Park Connector (1.5km) and Punggol Waterway (8.4km – both ways). These park connectors serve to link four parks: Punggol Park, Punggol Waterway Park (along Punggol Waterway), Punggol Point Park (at Punggol Promenade) and Sengkang Riverside Park.

  • Behind the Scenes: Jurong Lake District, Singapore Panel Insights on the ULI Advisory Services Panel Process ULI
    Behind the Scenes: Jurong Lake District, Singapore Panel Insights on the ULI Advisory Services Panel Process ULI or over 70 years, the Urban Land Institute (ULI)’s Advisory Services Programme has Fworked to bring together the finest expertise in real estate to provide insights on best practice in challenging land-use issues ranging from planning, to development, heritage, and regulatory policy. In total, ULI has now convened more than 600 Advisory Services Panels (ASPs), staffed by volunteers from its 40,000 inter-disciplinary membership base. By providing an unbiased outside point of view from this very deep pool of expertise, the Advisory Services programme has and continues to deliver fresh insights and innovative solutions to seemingly intractable real estate problems. In January 2018, the Ministry of National Development’s Centre for Liveable Cities (CLC) and the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) of Singapore (collectively known as ‘the Sponsors’) approached ULI to form an Advisory Services panel of ten highly qualified practitioners to provide strategic advice on Jurong Lake District, a growth area that is planned as a smart and sustainable mixed-use business district. Hailing from three continents and five countries, the ULI Jurong Lake District panel members (collectively known as “the Panel”) were selected based on their expertise in finance, master development, and transportation, as well as their ability to provide independent views on development strategies. The following piece further explores the Jurong Lake District panel’s scope and process. Background and the Panel’s Assignment Located in western Singapore, the 360-hectare Jurong Lake District encompasses two precincts: a commer- cial hub at Jurong Gateway, and a leisure, recreational and mixed-use area at Lakeside.

  • MEDIA RELEASE for Immediate Release
    MEDIA RELEASE For Immediate Release New National Masterplan to Encourage More to Garden - NParks takes over development of the Orchid Industry Singapore, 3 November 2017- The National Parks Board (NParks) today announced a new national gardening masterplan for Singapore which centres on promoting edible gardening. The masterplan will be implemented through both ongoing and new initiatives such as training, the expansion of the allotment gardening scheme, as well as outreach efforts like the Community Garden Festival. With a large number of community gardeners growing edibles, the Edible Horticulture Masterplan aims to increase knowledge and cultivate the community’s interest in gardening by opening up more avenues for the public to participate in Singapore’s greening efforts. During the opening of the Community Garden Festival at HortPark, NParks also unveiled HortHouse, which will serve as the new training hub for the Centre for Urban Greenery and Ecology (CUGE). This new landscape fronting HortHouse featuring eleven families of flowers and foliage will also provide an outdoor showcase of horticultural varieties to complement learning, and appeal to home gardeners. The focus on edibles taps on the immense interest in edible gardening to nurture younger gardeners. After more than a decade since the establishment of the Community in Bloom programme, community gardeners have honed their skills in growing edibles. At present, 80% of the gardening groups in HDB estates grow edibles in their community gardens. This burgeoning interest in edibles is also evident in the increasing number of entries in the NParks Community Garden Edibles Competition each year. There were a record number of 400 participants in this year’s competition, an approximately 33% increase from the previous year, in addition to an overall improvement in the quality of entries as the competition enters its third year.

The idea for a national garden was planted in 1822 when Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore, developed the first Botanical and Experimental Garden at Fort Canning. In 1859, the Singapore Botanic Gardens was established at the Tanglin site and in the 160 years past, it has flourished from a pleasure garden for the colonial community to a place cherished by all Singaporeans, a botanical institution known internationally. Singapore’s greening journey took root in the 1960s when founding Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew planted a Mempat Tree at Farrer Circus. This kickstarted a national effort for tree planting, sowing the seed of a green home where beautiful parks and green belts would be the birthright of every Singaporean. Today, the intricate lattice of greenery we have woven into the cityscape supports thriving biodiversity and provides residents with a quality living environment. This not only draws the appreciation and marvel of visitors, but has become a part of our national identity.
