The Project for Public Spaces "...is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating and sustaining public places that build communities." I love the idea behind this organization, dedicated to preserving and enhancing current public spaces to be better utilized for the general public. One of the nominees for their Great Public Spaces is none other than the plaza at the foot of the John Hancock building. I have to agree, in the summer, it's one of the nicer eat-lunch-ouside/people watching places to be.
