Quote

“A good plaza starts at the street corner. If it’s a busy corner, it has a brisk social life of its own. People will not just be waiting there for the light to change. Some will be fixed in conversation; others, in some phase of a prolonged goodbye. If there’s a vendor at the corner, people with cluster around him, and there will be considerable two-way traffic back and forth between plaza and corner.”
