The maps compare the plans of a public
park
 in 1920 and now.
Overall
, the
park
 experienced a reduction in the green areas, and there are fewer sitting places for people now, compared to 1920. If we look at the north-eastern
side
 of the maps, it is evident that the rose garden has turned into a cafe,
while
 the pond for water plants has been converted into a children's play area. On the eastern
side
 of the
park
, the seats have been removed to make way for a new entrance. The glasshouse on the southeastern
side
 has turned into a water feature. Moving forward, the central fountain has been turned down and replaced by a rose garden and sitting areas. Another significant change is that there used to be a stage for musicians on the western
side
 of the
park
, which is now replaced by an amphitheatre for concerts. A rose garden on the southwestern
side
 of the
park
 has
also
 been abolished during the period in question.
