Harminckettesek tere is located in the central district of Budapest almost on the second ring of the transportation network of the city which makes the accessibility to the site more alive in the urban context.The surroundings that de ne the location of the space are a main road that has a main tram line another intersecting road with a bus line buildings with commercial use of functions in the rst oor zones and some public squares too. There are main squares which are near the site Harminckettesek tere , Rackoczy ter , Kiscibesz ter, Gutenberg ter,5 and Horvath Mihaly ter.

Both Rackoczy ter park and Harminckettesek tere are related to one function of making the two nodes as hubs for the public transportation network as a tram line and a bus line are passing through them though both scales of these sites are di erent but they form this type of transitional spaces in the city network. The visual connection plays an important role of de ning the continuity of the movement and gives the space a spirit as Harminckettesek tere has a visual connection with a church and with the opposite side of the other side of the street as well.

The void is formed by three main buildings and these space walls made the park oreinted to the tram line road side The statue had a strong character of de ning the inner experience within the site and this vertical element gave an identity of that space.

The concept of the proposed design is turning the area around the statue forming an exhibitional type of space focusing on the importance and the identity of this element and the whole space from a historical point of view and value.
