The picture below shows the changes of a park from 1980 to now. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The maps show changes in the layout of a park between 1980 and the present. In general, the park is now more accessible and has several new facilities to serve different recreational demands of the public. In 1980, there was one pathway running through the park from the west gate to the south gate. A number of trees were located in the northeast, and flowers were planted along the south wall. There was also a pond with several benches around it situated on the eastern side of the park. Between 1980 and now, the path was removed and replaced with a new path which leads to all four sides of the park, and essentially divides it into four different areas. In the southwestern corner, the pond and benches are still intact, but the flowers in that area have been replaced with bushes. A new picnic area with tables and a barbecue grill has been set up in the northeastern corner, while the southeastern corner is now a dedicated playing field.
