  1. This is a good documentary. The way types of users were described and how they use the space/place captured the depth of these areas well - the couple who find the quiet corner, the groups of men looking at the women as they pass through, the lone people having lunch, the business people having conversations. Also the study of how light and shadow influences the space/place throughout the day was well presented. Good stuff.

  2. Absolutely and each square's essential mad bird lady. William Whyte could be David Attenborough's urban brother (from Bella)
