New York Public Space

Barbara Mantel takes a walking tour around New York City with author Jerold Kayden, who has written Privately Owned Public Space: The New York City Experience. In New York City, developers are allowed to make their buildings taller in exchange for creating parks, plazas or gardens for the public to use. Mantel and Kayden take a look at some of places created for public use.
