Toy Trains, Open theatre
JP Park to Get Major Facelift By Year-End

The BBMP may complete the renovation work at JP Park, estimated to cost Rs 37 crore, by December end.
The project includes building a 1,500-seater open theatre, toy train, colonial-style railway station, convention centre, clocktower, and children’s play area.
During an inspection of various works in RR Nagar Zone, Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath visited the park and directed officials to complete the work on the theatre in three months.
He also reviewed the work being carried out at Mallathahalli Lake at an estimated cost of Rs 59 crore. Some of the works proposed at this lake include building a compound wall, glasshouse, floating bridge, toy train, and parking facility.
Despite stiff resistance to turn the water body into a tourist attraction, civic authorities have gone ahead with the project, investing by far the largest sum of money on a lake renovation project.
The chief commissioner also directed Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) officials to demolish an illegal building (hotel) being constructed on a stormwater drain. He asked officials to clear all drain encroachments.
