Both Lincoln Center and Battery Park is an imitation of someplace. Lincoln Center mimics the Plaza of Campidoglio and puts art as the center of the important. Where else in Battery Park City, the elements of nature can be seen in many places. The relationship between humans and nature becomes the focal point of Battery Park City.

Imitation is a good thing, and Lincoln Center did a good job of bringing the Campidoglio plaza into the city. The needs of art turn away the needs of the city from the planner, which is green spaces. Walking around Lincoln Center, I only see one green roof that represents green space, but we were not allowed to use the green space. In Battery Park City, I am surrounded by the elements of nature. The new plan intends to focus on residential and commercial land use. The buildings near the waterfront haves façades that shape like waves. Some of the privately own courtyards are landscaped to form natural-looking terrains. Along the waterfront, there are parks, playgrounds, and pavilions. Giving people a chance to interact with nature. This condition reminds me of the BIG U rebuild by design projects. Where a variety of parks and terrains were used to build up resilience around the flood zoom. Unfortunately, the project was unable to become a reality.

The needs of parks and green spaces in the city are far more important than anything else. It has direct effects on the well being of people especially in a busy city where people are constantly working under pressure. Park is an imitation of nature and it brings peace into its surroundings.
