  • Revival of City Squares in Balkan Cities Urban Notes: City Squares and Public Spaces Arch
    Revival of City Squares in Balkan Cities Urban notes: City Squares and Public Spaces Arch. Divna Penčić Coalition for Sustainable Development – CSD, Skopje Revival of City Squares in Balkan Cities Urban Notes: City Squares and Public Spaces Arch. Divna Penčić When talking about squares and public spaces, in order to be clear, first of all, we will have to define their meaning. In our communication we use the term "square" quite frequently, and it appears that we are pretty clear what does it mean.

Definition: Dictionaries With this in mind, it is necessary to clearly define what is meant by the term "square". Many of the world’s famous dictionaries provide interpretations of this term, such as: - The Oxford Dictionary (1995), where the term “square” is defined as: open (usually four- sided) area surrounded by buildings; - The Illustrated Oxford Dictionary (2004) provides additional explanation of the term “square” stating that it is: b.
