Architectural Review 1513 July/August 2024
This issue identifies the critical role played by public bodies in carving out public space, celebrating the new public spaces around the world in the second edition of the AR Public awards. Elsewhere in the issue, five public spaces are revisited to ask how their original designers envisaged their use and how this has changed with time and shifting incentives. Some are success stories: Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro ‘attracts the richest and the poorest’; while in Le Cent Quatre in Paris, artists rehearse in a convivial, open atmosphere. In New York, the High Line’s ‘successes and shortcomings are as much a product of the neoliberal economy as of its designers’, while entrance to Meskel Square in Addis Ababa has become subject to an entrance fee.
