Plans to enhance the frontage of the park had been considered yet unbuilt for many years. However, towards the end of the 1980s,  Geoffrey Thompson resurrected plans to transform the front of the property in the form of Ocean Boulevard, an Edwardian inspired row of shops and restaurants.

A few years later, the Big One would be built above above Ocean Boulevard, creating the frontage that we know today.
