Do You think gardens is necessary in the towns, how big, and how we will find the expensive space in the center off the towns to make them?
Here is few pictures from the Stockholm, town which architects have trinking a lot aboute parks just a long period ago, maybe from 100 years before- till today. You can see this in the town....Altso I think it is not good to make all parks as new one, althou they will be made by different architects, because in the same way all will be the same, and the town will be boring...Parks in the Stockholm are very good because all off them are different and have own tradition, some off them very old one, and, in some way every off them is very special so that defferent people chouse and love some off tham more then others... It is some kind of competition - which park would have more visitors! Stockholm have a towns parks departmant- big one, which take care financially and technicaly about all parks. Maybe this is reason why Stockholm have a nice parks. Altso weather in Sveden is cold and sammer is very short, sa parks mast be in perfekt condition to give people in short time lot a pleasure because, in the sammer all peoples goes out !

I think of "parks" or city gardens as a need of urban areas for a lack of a proximity to nature. It has always been a human dilemma, the beast inside the civilized or to say in a different way the natural and the man made.
As you said what is not always there is more appreciated.

I'm joining this conversation a bit late, but I was just very intrigued by the discussion of the importance of urban green space. Michael- I love your description of city parks as the "lungs of a city." I totally agree that parks are needed (especially in big cities) for residents to be able to get their oxygen...their break from the industrialized urban life.
I especially love what cities like NYC and London have done with Central and Hyde Parks. The two parks are so huge that you can sit and isolate yourself completely from the buzz of the city. In some parts of the parks you can sit far enough away from the main streets that you can't even see or hear any cars or city noises. They have essentially 'created' nature within an urban space.
