Public Spaces NY

A sequel to Vacant Spaces NY, this volume documents and analyzes Manhattan's public realm—parks, streets, community gardens, POPS (Privately Owned Public Spaces), and waterfronts. It examines the legal, regulatory, and management structures that shape these spaces, arguing that public space is never neutral. The book includes detailed mappings and speculative illustrations on how design facilitates or hinders inclusion in the US's densest city.
