The proposed landscape design at the upcoming Gateway Business District responds to the fundamental idea of a sustainable, smart and safe city. Use of native species nurtures the ecosystem and reduces water demand. The trees have been selected strategically, ensuring that there are adequate shaded pedestrian friendly realms. Carbon sequestration has been one of the key criteria for selecting tree species.

The aim is to achieve a fine balance between the urban design framework and the natural environment by employing measures like bioswales, tree pits, parklets and rainwater harvesting systems. The trees selected are rugged enough to fight the changing climatic conditions and at the same time provide shade along walkways. Visually appealing and functionally relevant, the landscape sets the perfect background and foreground for the holistic city development.
