In 2000, the town was mostly individual houses and blocks of flats with the a number of trees and undeveloped spaces. The eastern side of the river had some facilities such as a school, a hospital and a railway station were located at that time.
By 2013, Templeton was dramatically changed. The most noticeable is that a ferry port was built, and there was more railway connecting both sides of the river.
