Some of the public spaces in historic precincts within Fort Kochi and Mattancherry were evaluated to identify key areas of touristic value which could be developed as pilot projects. Disconnected parcels of land and traffic dominated roads were proposed to be integrated and beautified to create walkways  with seaside views, areas for outdoor performances,  urban plazas, etc. Works undertaken have primarily been streetscape, lighting and landscaping works. The projects, such as upgradation of Vasco Square, Dutch Palace node and Synagogue Lane have been completed.
