Elizabeth Diller : A stealthy reimagining of urban public space

 Elizabeth Diller·TEDWomen 2020
A stealthy reimagining of urban public space 
Summary 

Stealthy means to be staying secretive and to be being secret, so in your city, there are a lot of commercial architectures and buildings. The privatized buildings are becoming older and it couldn’t gather people and urban change. 

The speaker suggests that for gathering people again, it should democratize those privatized cities progressively. It should create open spaces and landscapes for all public to enjoy and give back spaces to the public to reimagine old infrastructure, 1) to make us realize the environment and shrinking resources, 2) and to have sustainable ways. 3) 

The speaker tells us that public spaces can grow the city again and by creating a great landmark, the city can invite a lot of tourists from the world. She is a famous person who planned the High Line in New York and Zaryadye Park in Moscow. Those pictures are really beautiful in the video.
