dc.description | What was once a clogged and congested stretch of the Talisay River — blocked by informal settlers and waste — has now become a thriving 290-meter green space, thanks to a rehabilitation initiative led by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). The river, which flows between Barangays Talisay and Bagumbayan, used to struggle with poor water flow due to encroachments and pollution. But through the Manila Bay Rehabilitation Program, the area has been completely transformed — not just physically, but in its value to the community. Now, what stands in place of debris and obstructions is a peaceful riverside park complete with concrete benches, solar lights, and lush landscaping that includes carabao grass, Thai bamboo, golden Becha palm trees, and imported yucca. The project is part of a broader effort to recover legal easement areas and turn them into accessible green zones for public use. | en |
