The elements of the Parkinson Plan, the only version of Pershing Square that has ever been successful, embody the core elements of positive public space: green and quiet zones, water as a central unifying element, pedestrian short cuts and edges around which crowds can congregate to fill the square.
We are available to provide information about the historic park, so please call on us.
As a supporting document for this open letter, we also are pleased to share with you the eloquent comments of some of the more than 2000 people who have signed the Restore Pershing Square petition and who would eagerly support a return to Parkinson's design.
