The new park covers an area of 10,000 square meters and was opened to citizens on a Saturday evening by the Copacabana Mayor's Office and the Metropolitan Area of the Aburrá Valley. [^6]

The renovation preserved 123 existing trees, including guayacanes, ceibas, gualandayes, almendros, mangos, and African tulip trees, while also planting new ornamental species. [^7]
