From the moment Alexander wakes up and finds gum in his hair he knows it is going to be a bad day, and he is correct.

The opposite is a space that is derelict, disconnected from its surroundings, and not being used. It needs to feel safe and not be too noisy or windy or sunny or cold. On the physical side, a great public space needs to be well connected to its surroundings, easy to get to, and have “active edges,” meaning functions that help to bring people together and build community. Public spaces are defined by the activities that take place, the culture and identity of the communities they support, the social mix of people, the kinds of programming.
