This old, yet witty and original film is about the open spaces of cities and why
some of them work for people while others don't.
-by William H. Whyte via MASNYC.
Beginning at New York's
Seagram Plaza, one of the most used open areas in the city, the film
proceeds to analyze why this space is so popular and how other urban
oases, both in New York and elsewhere, measure up. Based on direct
observation of what people actually do, the film presents a remarkably
engaging and informative tour of the urban landscape and looks at how it
can be made more hospitable to those who live in it.
