The park was designed as a 'sponge city' project to address Jakarta's chronic flood management issues.
The project involved removing concrete canal walls to restore natural soil absorption along the riverbanks.
The Infinity Connecting Bridge is constructed with a distinctive orange color scheme to create a visual landmark within the greenery.
The park functions as a biological filter for the local water system before it enters the broader municipal drainage network.
The site was previously two separate, fragmented green spaces before being integrated and redesigned in 2022.
Tebet Eco Park is a 7-hectare urban wetland transformation that integrates flood mitigation with recreational green space in South Jakarta. The park is bisected by the Sunter River, which was renaturalized to manage runoff while creating a habitat corridor. A distinctive orange infinity bridge connects the park's north and south zones, providing an elevated view of the canopy. The facility features dedicated zones for exercise, including multi-purpose jogging tracks and fitness stations. Landscaping utilizes native vegetation designed to filter water and attract local fauna. The park utilizes sustainable drainage systems (SUDs) to prevent seasonal flooding in the Tebet area. Visitors have access to designated seating areas, community lawns, and a children's playground. The design prioritizes pedestrian-friendly circulation, separating walking paths from cycling areas.
