The maps compare the current layout of Grand Park with its initial construction, highlighting significant modernization.
In 1920, the park consisted of three rose gardens and one glasshouse in its corners. The northeast garden was replaced by a café, and the one in the southwest was completely demolished, while the northeast one remained intact. Additionally, the area that was occupied by the glasshouse is now repurposed into an entrance to the underground parking lot. Moreover, the free space between the ponds and the glasshouse is utilized by developing a water feature.
Another significant transformation in the center of the park is the replacement of the fountain with a rose garden surrounded by seats. Furthermore, the stage for musicians was rebuilt as an amphitheatre for cultural programs, and a children’s play area was built in place of the pond. Despite these extensive transformations, the entrances from Arnold Avenue and Eldon Street remained unchanged, reflecting a deliberate effort to preserve their original features.
In summary, the park has undergone comprehensive redevelopment, evolving from a predominantly natural area into a more modern, functional region.
