A plan to build a new car park, cafe and visitor centre in the Phoenix Park has been likened to prostituting the area for Dublin's economic gain.
29 recommendations have been made, which aim to boost visitor numbers to the park.
They include dividing the park into four quarters, with a central line running down the middle.
The Office of Public Works is looking for feedback on creating areas with themes like history and heritage, activity and well-being, and biodiversity.
Minister for the OPW, Kevin 'Boxer' Moran hopes the plan will cement Phoenix Park's place as "One of the truly great parks of the world".
He also said "the unique features that comprise the Phoenix Park will be conserved and protected".
Pat Allison from the Navan Road Community Council completely disagrees with the plan.
She described the current proposal as "like prostituting the Phoenix Park to make money for the city of Dublin".
She has dismissed a suggestion that the park needs to sell souvenir items, like t-shirts for tourists.
"If you're coming off one of these giant ships, you just say 'hi folks', we have a bus going to a semi-wild deer park, where there are no shops".
"...but we have another bus going in a different direction, where you can shop all you want".
The Navan Road Community Council is calling on people to reject the proposed changes to Phoenix Park.
Submissions can be made here, and the deadline for feedback is this Friday.
Head of Attractions at Fáilte Ireland, Mary Stack, said there is "major potential for the park to evolve as a world-class visitor attraction".
Public feedback "will guide the future development" and open up a "wealth of stories", she said.
The Welcome Quarter
New visitor buildings, and a more stripped-back entrance could be created at Parkgate Street.
"We envisage an opportunity for a clean paved surface, free of the overt trappings of vehicular traffic".
A statue "may be positioned at the crest of the hill to reproduce the theatrical effect of figure and silhouette to provide a measure of drama".
The Central Line
The central line runs along Chesterfield Avenue, and could include temporary and permanent art installations.
Teams also want to install seating areas, sundecks, fountains and picnic tables.
A circuit training layout, children’s activities and refreshment kiosks could also be developed.
Pedestrians, cyclists and roller-bladers will be given priority with potential room for skateboarding.
A series of quieter spaces off the Line for sitting in different landscaped atmospheres to view the moving life of the park.
The Activity Quarter
A new education centre could be created in an existing exhibition building.
An outdoor adventure area and nature trail could be created using hard and soft landscaping.
The Biodiversity Quarter
A new welcome area, including visitor building could be created in the Biodiversity Quarter.
Educational, recreational and leisure facilities could also be developed in the space.
The Commemorative Quarter
In the space known as The Commemorative Quarter, this plan would see the Magazine Fort enhcnaced.
The draft report also pushes for a proposed bridge connecting the War Memorial Gardens to be built.
A study of the relationship between Phoenix Park and Farmleigh to maximising visitor numbers has also been proposed.
