History
Prior to 1993, the site where the
acid soil
on the grounds was another challenge, which the neighborhood groups tackled successfully.
But as the trees took hold and grew, they provided refuge for
security fencing and lighting, reducing the problem. Year after year, more trees were planted by both volunteers and the local municipality. in 2003, the local neighborhood groups successfully lobbied for a name change of the park to Jardín Botánico. Currently it is one of the few verdant refuges in the city, popular with locals and visitors alike.[3]
