Quotes:

“Great public space is a kind of magical good”

Most things that people buy in stores give them a lot of satisfaction the moment they buy them. But after a few days, that satisfaction decreases, and months later, it completely melts away. But great public space is a kind of magical good. It never ceases to yield happiness. It’s almost happiness itself.

Enrique Peñalosa, 2013 from Happy City: Transforming our Lives through Urban Design
