In our work on this project, our task was to create a new functional core for the park. A core that would add new functions to the existing park, develop the potential of available activities and attract new visitors.

We started our work with analyzing the park in the context of its development and current use. During the 1990s and the early years of the 21st century the park, which was created in the 1930s, kept dwindling, losing parts of its territory now occupied by an apart hotel, an amusement park separated from the park by a metal enclosure and other facilities. The Kirov stadium, originally planned as a cyclopean landscape object serving as a logical conclusion of the composition of the park, was taken down in 2006. In its place a new stadium with a developed infrastructure was built, separating the park from the Gulf of Finland and violating the original layout logic of the seaside park open towards the sea.As a result, this park, which was once open outwards, towards the sea and its environment, is now included into the sprawling urban fabric, at times very.
