Unlike other areas where reserved lands are exploited for developments in the name of modernization, it is believed that the lush greenery of this green lung will remain as it is for a very long time. The hill is a favorite spot for nature lovers where there are plenty flora and fauna can be found in the vicinity including more than 65 species of local and migratory birds, as well as several mature forest trees such as 'tembusu', 'nyatoh tembaga' and 'pulai'. So far, the City Hall's town and planning department has confirmed that there were no development proposals in the vicinity of Federal Hill. Malaysian Nature Society together with Badan Warisan Malaysia has submitted a proposal to turn the hill as part of urban park of the Lake Gardens. Living in one of the only remaining green pocket of the city, the air is very refreshing and the view of the surrounding greenery is indeed very breathtaking. Comparing Federal Hill and other exclusive and affluent residential areas such as Damansara Heights, Kenny Hills and Mont Kiara, Federal Hill is in fact very special and super exclusive as there might be no more new development in the vicinity – making it very limited and exclusive.
