Please note that the podium gardens will be redesigned to address water ingress issues, replacing in-ground planting with tiled pedestal systems and container-based landscaping. To maintain the existing lush garden character, the design incorporates climbers on overhead tensioned wires, wall-mounted planters, and grouped pots to create dense foliage with minimal planting media. Integrated irrigation beneath the pedestal system will provide efficient, low-maintenance watering while significantly reducing water consumption. Community garden beds will be included throughout the podium areas, allowing residents to grow vegetables, herbs, fruit, or ornamental plants, with flexibility to convert these spaces as needs change. The proposal also includes upgrading the pool area through new tiling, artificial turf, improved planting, additional seating areas, and the removal of unnecessary fencing to create a more open and attractive environment. Across the wider property, garden restoration, mulching, irrigation improvements, and targeted infill planting will help rejuvenate the grounds following remediation works, creating a more appealing, community-focused, and valuable asset for residents.
