THE POWER OF 10+ (PROJECT FOR PUBLIC SPACES, 2009)

The Power of 10+ is a concept developed by the Project for Public Spaces in 2009. The idea is that cities become successful when it has destinations that people has at least 10 or more reasons to go to. These reasons may include eating in a restaurant, bicycling in the park, having a picnic, browsing through museums, drinking at the bar, etc. Of course, some activities would unique according to the culture and spirit of the place.

“The Power of 10+ offers an easy framework that encourages residents and stakeholders to revitalize urban life, and it shows big things can be accomplished by starting at the smallest scale. The concept also gives people incremental and tangible goals, and it helps them to visualize, and collectively work towards, a truly great end result.” - Project for Public Spaces

In connection to the project, this theory/concept will greatly help because the main goal is to promote the Pasig River, encouraging people to utilize it. In order to encourage them, they first need reasons to go to the waterfront development. Specific spaces needed for the project will be mainly based on this.
