The project revitalised the shuttered Taman Pertanian Jubli Perak (Kuantan Agripark) so that it may once again serve as a dynamic urban green space for recreation, environmental education, and economic activity. Much of the work revolved around improving the polluted waterways and lakes, removing derelict and unsafe structures, and upgrading salvageable buildings and visitor amenities. A thorough audit was conducted of the existing building footprint of the park and the conditions of all structures and shelters. A carefully considered renovation and refurbishment plan was developed. Now, with upgraded amenities, the park has become a cleaner, safer, and more accessible green space.
