The park showcases an extraordinary blend of international design expertise with renowned global architects contributing to its artistic and aesthetic appeal, and architects from L49 in Thailand have shaped and developed the mesmerising landscape.
"This is a state-of-the-art park in Thane. We are really proud of this development, which has been built in lieu of TDR, and Thane Municipal Corporation has not spent a single penny on this massive development," said Shinde at the inauguration this evening.
Kalpataru Group Chairman Mofatraj Munot said that the NGCP is the outcome of a fruitful partnership with the TMC and helped create a transformative space that celebrates nature, community and sustainable growth.
"By setting new benchmarks for urban green spaces, the Park aspires to become a symbol of progressive urban planning. It seamlessly blends international standards with local relevance, aiming to enhance the visitors and residents' quality of life," remarked Munot.
