The 60ha Lakeside Garden, one of three within the 90ha Jurong Lake Gardens, has been fully redeveloped with the completion of the northern section.The skate park, located in the northern section of Lakeside Garden, is about the size of two football fields, and is the first in Singapore with a parkour park and a bouldering wall.
Besides the skate park, some other features include the Grasslands, a popular spot for photos, and the largest nature play garden for children in the heartland. The NParks tapped experts from Convic Design, a professional skate park design company from Australia. Mr Janiel, who started skateboarding around the age of 10, added that he was glad to see how the Government is supportive of the sport. He said skateboarding has helped to shape his character.
Earlier phases of Lakeside Garden’s redevelopment involved the restoration of a freshwater swamp forest, as well as grassland and wetland trails. These attractions were completed in 2019 and have since drawn more than 17 million visitors, said the National Parks Board .
