Mithilesh KP | Public market is an area for socializing and gathering all the people's needs at one particular place. By creating a MARKET SQUARE which has an active public place in terms of both market and recreational spaces, encourages social interaction for the ward.
Project description
Project idea
To create a "MARKET SQUARE" which serves the purpose of both market and recreational spaces.
Need for the project
There are quite a few numbers of existing markets throughout the area but all those markets are dispersed and cause congestion in terms of traffic. Though this area has 2 lakes and 5 parks which is one of the main focus points of this, a lot of public gatherings happen over these public recreational spaces and my intervention is to propose a market square nearby the one of those, which becomes a crowd-pulling factor and serving both the function.
