i. Access & Linkages
• accessibility of a Public plaza is judged by its connections to its surroundings, both visual and physical. A successful public plaza is easy to get to and get through; it is visible both from a distance and up close. • People can easily walk to the places. Sidewalks should lead to and from the adjacent area. • Making and designing a defined circulation pattern for car traffic and pedestrians in order to provide a safer environment for pedestrians and cyclists. • Parking place should be eliminated from the center of plaza • Transit stops should conveniently located nearby.
ii. Comfort & Image
• Comfort includes perceptions about safety, cleanliness, and the availability of places to sit - the importance of giving people the choice to sit where they want is generally underestimated. • Enough sitting places, conveniently located with choice of place to sit, either in sun or shade. • the footpath should be covered with comfortable and appropriate materials are better to be different with the road for cars.
• Utilizing adequate urban furniture in the public square leads people to enjoy attending the place. Urban furniture should be designed according to the
space. • Using several type of lights with different (Lux) to illuminate each part of city
square.
iii. Uses & Activities
• Activities are the basic building blocks of great places: They are the reasons why people visit in the first place, and why they continue to return. They are also what makes a place special or unique. • A space that is used by both singles and people in groups is better than one that is just used by people alone because it means that there are places for people to sit with friends, there is more socializing, and it is more fun. • adding some small sculptures on different sides of plaza which can reflect history and culture of the place.
iv. Sociability
