Reflection on Field Trip – Urban Description

As we were strolling through the parks, plazas, and Squares, one as a designer is able to recognize the differences between these three public spaces. I noticed that the materials used on the ground surfaces of these spaces gave a feeling about what the space was meant to be for. A plaza usually had tile or more smoother materials, park used grass or pebbled ground, and square had a little of both. Also, it is comforting that the streets are being narrowed down, making more of a pedestrian like setting instead of a vehicular one.
