Local fishermen are still protesting against the BMC's plan to build a 300-acre park in Cuffe Parade - on the lines of New York's Central Park - but the civic body has proposed to add another park to the cityscape. As per Development Plan 2014-34, which was passed by the BMC on Monday, there's a proposal to build a central park on the east coast, near Mazgaon.

Environmentalists warn that the move could damage the coastal belt and disturb marine life.
