Abstract: With a very high population and fast economic growth and increasing per capita incomes, the mega city of Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat, India faces challenges of maintaining green spaces. The city has semi-arid climate with shorter period of monsoon. The city’s landscape is changing faster than ever before and with the residences changing from independent bungalows with small gardens to high rise apartments in a very short span of 20 years, the responsibility of maintaining green spaces falls on the public authorities. The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) and the Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA) have made efforts in this area and this paper focuses on one such effort of AUDA.
