The two maps illustrate the development of the area around the lake from 2000 to 2009. Compared to the 2000 map, the 2009 map shows that the lake was reduced in size and turned into a pond, the derelict warehouses and old town were replaced by new buildings such as a university and offices, the appearance of commercial amenities such as shopping malls and cinemas, and the industrial complex was expanded.
In terms of the changes in the North, the Lake shrank into a pond but the woodland was preserved. Also, the derelict warehouses and old town were demolished, making space for a university built near the pond, then offices and a car park were added nearby. Regarding the alterations in the South and in the center, the industrial complex in the southeast was expanded and there is an expansion of the commercial area because a shopping center and a multi-screen cinema were constructed, replacing some residential areas. Finally, while the residential area in the northwest remained unchanged, a new residential area was added near the river.
In summary, the area has undergone significant modernization with the addition of educational, commercial and industrial buildings. Based on what is shown on the map, the transformation reflects urbanization, focusing on education and economic growth.
