answer explanation: 

<p>The correct answer is (A) construction.</p>
<p>The sentence requires a noun after "the" to specify what aspect of the new park is being put off.&nbsp;</p>
<p>(B) construct is a verb, not a noun, so it cannot be the correct answer.</p>
<p>(C) constructor is a noun, but it refers to a person who builds or constructs something, not the action itself. Therefore, it is not the correct answer.</p>
<p>(D) constructed is a past participle form of the verb "construct." It is not a noun, so it cannot be the correct answer.</p>
<p>(A) construction is a noun that refers to the action or process of building or creating something. In this sentence, it is used to describe the action of building the new park. Therefore, it is the correct answer.</p>
