Considering the specific site conditions, as the metro under the park has water infiltrations, water scarcity and climate changes in Bucharest, there is a need for water-efficient approaches. To assess and protect the current park, comprehensive site analyses were carried out in spring 2024. The vegetation study identified 583 trees with 104 being dead or non-viable, leaving 479 viable trees. From the site analyses, topography and vegetation study, there was a clearer view for what set of recommendations to follow for the revitalization program of the park. The inventory of trees helped to identify young and mature trees that require irrigation and to select appropriate new plant species for efficient water usage.
