The given map demonstrates the transformation of a city centre from 2000 to the present.
Overall, there have been some major changes and the city has become more urbanized and more convenient. Furthermore, the striking changes include the new recreational and public facilities, and the elimination of green spaces.
In the initial map, the northern section was dominated by a university, while some green woods was located in the northeastern, and was next to this university. Moreover, a train station was in the northwestern area of the map, and the southwest part was surrounded by a line of old market. Besides, a port was in the middle of the south of the map.
At present, a residential hall has been constructed on the northwestern side of the plan, and it is next to the former university. Where there used to be the green space, there is now a new shopping centre. Additionally, old markets have been removed to make way for a new shop, and new markets have been located in the southeastern zone. The initial train station has been demolished and a new one has been moved in the middle of the map. Finally, the south region has the development of a restaurant and bars and clubs, and a pedestrian zone has been established in the south.
