W: Public spaces are the places where we interact with other people in our community: streets, shopping malls, public parks, and so on.(22)Public spaces have a huge impact on the quality of life of the people who use them, especially in cities. Today, we’re going to talk about parks. Our guest is Charles Ong from the Parks Planning Association, and he’s going to tell us what makes a good public park. Welcome to the program.
M: Thank you.
W: First of all, is there such a thing as a bad public park? I mean, aren’t all parks good?
M: Well, no. I think if you think about it, some parks just don’t work for one reason or another.(23)A good public park is above all, attractive. People want to go there. You want to have it used by different kinds of people. You want children, and older people, and women—and that, by the way, is often a good indicator of how successful a city park is.
W: What? Women?
M: Yeah, (24)women are generally more aware of their surroundings. They’re much less likely to sit down or relax in public area if they feel uncomfortable.
W: Right. Now that I think of it, some places don’t even provide places to sit.
M: Yeah, seating is a big thing. A lot of parks don’t have enough seating, or it’s uncomfortable, or the seats are out in the wind or the sun.
W: It seems so obvious.
M: You’d think so, wouldn’t you?(25)But a lot of parks are put in with very little consideration of how to make them work.
