A public square is a promise made in stone, shade and open space. It says that the city belongs to everyone passing through it, whether they have somewhere to be or simply need somewhere to sit.
That promise takes maintenance. It means designing places that welcome different ages, incomes and ways of spending time.
“The best ideas make us look at familiar things a little differently.”
That kind of change rarely arrives all at once. It is built through choices, small and deliberate, that make more room for the things we want to keep.
