Senayan Park (abbreviated as Spark, stylized in

Dunia Fantasi in Ancol), opened in the early 1970s.[2][3]

History

Taman Ria Remaja/Taman Ria Senayan

In the early 1970s, Siti Hartinah – the first lady and wife of President Suharto, as well as other government officials, were concerned about the incrase of juvenile delinquency cases in Indonesia.[2][4] As a respond, Siti Hartinah (or commonly known as Tien Suharto) wanted to built a recreational area for teenagers. She and her Rukun Ibu Ampera (RIA) Pembangunan team decided to built an amusement park – which later named Taman Ria Remaja (Cheerful Teenage Park) – on a 11 ha (1,200,000 sq ft) of land northeast of the Senayan Sports Complex, which was already occupied by the State Secretariat. The construction cost Rp 23 million (at the time).[2]

It is unclear when the amusement park was inaugurared, but it later became a popular gathering spot for teenagers and young adults from across Jakarta, thanks to its affordable entrance ticket. There is an artificial lake for water rides like motorboat and water bicycle. Other rides including a ferris wheel and spinning cups.[2]

In March 1995, Taman Ria Remaja was renamed to Taman Ria Senayan. RIA Pembangunan as the manager partnered PT. Ariobimo Laguna Perkasa (ALP). In 1997, Taman Ria Senayan was reopened to the public, after receiving a renovation.[2]

In the mid 2000s,[citation needed] Taman Ria Senayan began to experience the major decrease of visitors, as newer amusement parks emerged. Eventually in 2008, Taman Ria Senayan was peemanently closed and abadoned.[1] The remaining buildings were demolished in 2010.

Redevelopment into Senayan Park

ALP as the owner of the site decided to redevelop the site, due to its strategic location and historical value.[1] It was revealed that the site would be developed into a new commercial area, which consist of a shopping mall.[5] The then-speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR), Marzuki Alie rejected the redevelopment plan, as the land was still owned by the State Secretariat.[6][7]

In 2015, the construction of the shopping mall building foundation was started.[8] It was later revealed that the redevelopment is named Senayan Park, and its construction was finished in early 2020.[citation needed] The mall was officially soft opened in mid-August of the same year.

Senayan Park has numbers of shopping and recreational facilities. For recreational purposes, there are numbers of spots that can be used for visitors to take photos, which includes tables and swing on the lake bank, and an amphitheatre with sculptures. There is also a vast area for community activities.[9]

On the rooftop of the main building, there is a skydeck that allow visitors to see a wider view of Jakarta's skyline. The skydeck become crowded every dusk, in order to get the best view of the skyline. It also has a transparent glass floor. To get into the skydeck, visitors have to show their receipt with a Rp 50.000 (roughly US$ 3.21) minimum nominal of purchases of any products and services inside the mall complex.[10]
