It will be the first park in Swansea city centre since the Victorian era - and judging by these pictures, we haven't got much longer to wait before we can officially head there and explore.
The city's brand new 1.1-acre coastal park, next to the much anticipated Swansea Arena - which forms part of Swansea Council's £135 million Copr Bay phase one district - is shaping up nicely, and is expected to be ready for people to visit by the time audiences are welcomed to the arena in March.
And these new aerial images show us exactly how it looks at the moment. We can see the design of the park is mapped out nicely. Located above a new car park, it has been arranged in a dune-like shape to celebrate its closeness to Swansea beach. A living wall will feature on the Oystermouth Road side of the new car park to complement new greenery that has already been introduced there.

Over the next fortnight, planting of new greenery is to take place, while current ongoing work includes the introduction of water features and soft play areas for children.
Swansea Council leader Rob Stewart said: "Extensive planting will take place in the flower beds over the next fortnight or so to give the coastal park a very green look ahead of its completion. This follows on from considerable progress in recent months, with the park now really starting to take shape.
"The first new park in the city centre since Victorian times, this new attraction will give residents, families, city centre workers and visitors to Swansea a high-quality space to relax, meet friends, enjoy the views or get a meal or a drink before an event at Swansea Arena."
The coastal park will also feature a selection of new trees, including cherries and pines. They are among more than 70 new trees being introduced as part of the Copr Bay phase one district as a whole.
Bug hotels and free WiFi will also be at the park, along with solar-powered benches enabling people to charge their smartphones, tablets and laptops. Other park features include a new restaurant to be run by Swansea-based business, The Secret.
Copr Bay phase one, which the council has said will be worth £17.1 million every year to the city's economy, is being advised by development managers RivingtonHark, with Buckingham Group Contracting the main contractor.
Mr Stewart added: "A key part of Swansea's Copr Bay district, it also contributes to our on-going plan to introduce as much greenery as possible in Swansea city centre. Other examples include our £12m transformation of The Kingsway into a far greener, more pleasant environment, along with our plans to introduce far more greenery in a major Castle Square Gardens improvement project."
