This document summarizes a workshop on public space management best practices. It discusses the importance of involving public space managers in the design phase of projects like Yerba Buena Gardens and Union Square Park. Successful public spaces are designed for multiple uses, have necessary amenities and infrastructure, integrate into the surrounding community, and require committed stakeholders and partnerships between public and private organizations. The overall mission is to create a friendly, beautiful, clean and well-maintained space that ensures visitor safety through coordinated programming, security, maintenance and other operations.
