PUBLIC SPACE

- American Planning Association

“A public space may be a gathering spot or part of a neighborhood, downtown, special district, waterfront or other area within the public realm that helps promote social interaction and a sense of community. Possible

examples may include such spaces as plazas, town squares, parks, marketplaces, public commons and malls, public greens, piers, special

areas within convention centers or grounds, sites within public buildings, lobbies, concourses, or public spaces within private buildings.”

–Urban Dictionary

“A place, in wide definition, for everybody to enjoy their coexistence and represent their collectivity and common interest without drowning or

disaggregating their diversity.”
