A sensitive mixed-use masterplan with large areas of parkland retaining existing wetlands and mature tropical trees at its heart. Garden City is a major regeneration project covering 13 hectares along a key transportation route to the North East of Nairobi.
The centrepiece is a two level, 500,000 sqft retail, dining and leisure development served by three major anchor units. Sitting alongside is a development of over 500 apartments and a 0.6 hectare commercial development.
The masterplan maximises the available areas of green space and is sensitive to the existing wetlands and mature tropical trees around the site. A dramatic central park and wetland area retains many of these features and provide a key focus for all elements of the development.
