	*The collaborative process was a true learning experience for all of us. Nishtha and Leslie are architects and Mohammed is Landscape architect ~~but~~ from totally different parts of the world. The park itself was designed by an architectural firm and that made it interesting for us to work upon. We had a good base to begin with. We were lucky to have Leslie on site almost every other day, with new inputs to give, altering our approaches as well!		*The collaborative process was a true learning experience for all of us.

	*All our approaches still focused mainly around the issue of connecting Bicentennial Park to metropolitan park areas; through vegetation, pathways, green bridges, tunnels. This seemed to be the most obvious requirement for the site given the proximity and yet the disconnect between the two areas. Diverting some of the vehicular traffic was a joint issue here. Secondly, we focused on improving micro-climate and inducing more cultural activities. Both of these were done to give fuel to people to come to the park more often! The green nodes, spreading into the city's urban fabric helps introduce the park even before its real boundaries begin.		*All our approaches still focused mainly around the issue of connecting Bicentennial Park to metropolitan park areas; through vegetation, pathways, green bridges, tunnels.
