1987年(nian)(nian)，市政府決定開發東(dong)湖，重建東(dong)湖公(gong)(gong)(gong)園(yuan)(yuan)，規劃面積20.56公(gong)(gong)(gong)頃，公(gong)(gong)(gong)園(yuan)(yuan)為(wei)風格獨特的綜合性公(gong)(gong)(gong)園(yuan)(yuan)，突(tu)出閩(min)南石雕、石刻(ke)、盆景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)特色，配以(yi)詩畫(hua)室(shi)廊，公(gong)(gong)(gong)園(yuan)(yuan)設(she)春夏(xia)秋(qiu)冬(dong)(dong)四(si)景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)，各(ge)(ge)景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)建筑(zhu)小品(pin)緊(jin)扣(kou)季節(jie)特點，春為(wei)溫陵集(ji)錦，夏(xia)為(wei)星(xing)湖荷香，秋(qiu)為(wei)山海匯奇，冬(dong)(dong)為(wei)桐林(lin)懷古(gu)。春冬(dong)(dong)二景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)間設(she)竹(zhu)徑通幽過道(dao)(dao)。并復(fu)建二公(gong)(gong)(gong)亭(ting)、恩波(bo)亭(ting)、攬(lan)月亭(ting)等亭(ting)榭。園(yuan)(yuan)內分(fen)設(she)主(zhu)次環(huan)(huan)道(dao)(dao)，主(zhu)環(huan)(huan)道(dao)(dao)環(huan)(huan)中心(xin)湖主(zhu)景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)，以(yi)花(hua)(hua)崗(gang)(gang)巖鋪地(di)裝(zhuang)飾花(hua)(hua)紋，西北段(duan)架拱橋，主(zhu)環(huan)(huan)道(dao)(dao)可通車。次環(huan)(huan)道(dao)(dao)根據(ju)各(ge)(ge)景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)地(di)形和(he)造景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)需(xu)要呈“S”型布局。路面鋪花(hua)(hua)崗(gang)(gang)巖。分(fen)景(jing)(jing)(jing)(jing)區(qu)采用(yong)不同花(hua)(hua)紋。建橋7座(zuo)。公(gong)(gong)(gong)園(yuan)(yuan)于1991年(nian)(nian)動工，共投資人民幣2000多(duo)萬元。但(dan)因(yin)福廈公(gong)(gong)(gong)路穿(chuan)過東(dong)湖原址，故復(fu)建規模不及(ji)其半。
