Judges cite the 44.8-hectare NCC Central Park's potential to integrate various stakeholders and give credit for the extensive workshops and engagements with these communities.
CLARK FREEPORT ZONE, Philippines – The New Clark City Central Park’s sustainable and inclusive design recently bagged the 2022 SEMEC Gold Award for the Analysis and Planning Category in the biennial Singapore Landscape Architecture Awards.
The proposed 44.8-hectare Central Park project at the New Clark City was envisioned to become one of the largest urban parks in the country. In a July 2022 conference with tourism and travel investors, BCDA Senior Vice President for Conversion and Development Joshua M. Bingcang stressed that BCDA’s master plan proposes that only 40% of the total land area will be built on, leaving 60% for forests, open spaces and parks.
“This recognition from the Singapore Landscape Architecture Awards just shows that we are in the right direction towards the development of a sustainable and green metropolis that Filipinos can be proud of,” Zosa said.
