Summaries of content, keywords and links generated by algorithms. Thank you smmry.com:

Summary 1: In many large scale patterns which define public space, the edge is critical: PROMENADE, SMALL PUBLIC SQUARES, PUBLIC OUTDOOR ROOM, PEDESTRIAN STREET, BUILDING THOROUGHFARE, PATH SHAPE.

Summary 2: Surround public gathering places with pockets of activity - small, partly enclosed areas at the edges, which jut forward into the open space between the paths, and contain activities which make it natural for people to pause and get involved.

Summary 3: In more detail: people gravitate naturally toward the edge of public spaces.

Summary 4: If the edge does not provide them with places where it is natural to linger, the space becomes a place to walk through, not a place to stop.

Summary 5: The scalloped edge must surround the space entirely.

Summary 6: To make the space lively, the scalloped edge must surround the space completely..
