The main objective was to bring back the lost heritage of the river,protect & connect the site with modern environment.Properly using the river based transportation,making an active river front,integrating it with the main city was the goal of the project.

There is a park in the site which is left as an unused space.To revive the park a over head connection is provided with the river front.Boat is an important transportation system in Bangladesh.To maximize the use of boat multiple 'ghats' are created.Every ghats has its own identity & purpose.
There are some design strategies which involves;

1.over head connection with the park & the river front to enable un interrupted walkway. Children do not have to cross the vehicular road in that way from the park.
