“…Ruang terbuka publik sebagai external public space menurut Carr didefinisikan sebagai jenis ruang luar yang dapat digunakan secara bebas oleh masyarakat untuk melakukan aktivitas dan interaksi sosial [2]. Ruang terbuka publik merupakan elemen penataan lanskap yang penting dan merupakan titik penting bagi sistem sosial kemasyarakatan di sebuah kota [3]. Ruang terbuka publik menyediakan berbagai layanan (seperti fasilitas untuk aktivitas fisik dan interaksi sosial) kepada masyarakat lokal, dan layanan ini penting untuk kesejahteraan masyarakat dan untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup [4] Ruang terbuka publik adalah bagian penting dari semua kota dan ada dalam berbagai jenis, bentuk, dan ukuran (dari alun-alun, jalan hingga taman bermain, taman, tepi sungai, dan hutan kota), masing-masing memberikan layanan lingkungan dan sosial yang berbeda untuk semua penduduk [5].…”

Ruang terbuka publik baiknya didesain dengan optimal agar ruang-ruang yang tercipta dapat dimanfaatkan para pengunjung dengan baik & optimal pula. Di kawasan ruang terbuka publik Tepi Situ Mangga Bolong terdapat aktivitas yang dilakukan di tempat yang tidak tepat seperti parkir di ruang berkumpul, PKL di ruang hijau dan lain-lain sehingga menimbulkan ketidakteraturan. Oleh karena itu, hal ini perlu lebih diperhatikan penataannya agar pengunjung dapat merasa aman dan nyaman. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui & mengevaluasi pemanfaatan ruang pada Kawasan Ruang Terbuka Publik Tepi Situ Mangga Bolong berdasarkan aktivitas & perilaku pengunjung. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan observasi langsung. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitaif melalui place-centered-mapping sebagai alat untuk mengetahui kecenderungan pemanfaatan ruang & aktivitas pengunjung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Kawasan Terbuka Publik Tepi Situ Mangga Bolong memiliki ruang-ruang yang kurang optimal dalam pemanfaatannya dikarenakan memiliki kekurangan pada ruang fisiknya sehingga mempengaruhi aktivitas dan perilaku pengunjung dalam pemanfaatan ruangnya.

“…Historically, Dhaka's urban anatomy changed hand in hand with multiple political regimes. Due to its geographical location, it has attracted many and miscellaneous settlers (Begum, 2020). As human presence increased, different power regimes imprinted lasting traces in the city's spatial form, and its public space in particular.…”

Public space is an essential social infrastructure for the continuous negotiation of city life and democracy because it offers (ideally) an interactive platform for people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds and the forms of public life they cherish. This contribution inquires how public space’s design and materiality play a fundamental role in popular struggles for social justice. By focusing on the differentiated access of women to public space, the role of gender in its design, and appropriation through a feminist intersectionality lens, this article aims to understand better the complex interplay between urban space and its non‐human material agency vis‐à‐vis citizen mobilizations, movements, and socially engaged art interventions. Drawing from extensive participant observation and spatial analysis, the exemplary public space of Shahbag Chattwar (a public square/plaza) will shed light on the “gendered spatiality” of pivotal popular mobilizations and reclamations from the historical momentum of the 1952 language movement, over the 2013 contemporary Shahbag protests, and to the 2020 anti‐metro rail protests at the Dhaka University campus. Analyzing urban space as a “palimpsest,” this research reflects on both historic and ongoing scenarios of popular protests as they repeatedly occupy public space and leave spatial traces through spatial design and art. In sum, the article seeks to gain insight into public space as a principal site of contestation and negotiation of juxtaposed layers of gendered dynamics, civil rights, secularism, and fundamentalism.

“…Cities are centers of growth characterized by the rapid development of several aspects [1] and [2]. These are, however, unable to be contained by the available formal spaces, thereby, leading to the growth of informal spaces [3] which are highly dependent on location, accessibility, mobility, and connectivity based on economic and strategic considerations [4].…”

Jiung is an informal market growing in public open spaces in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, Indonesia. It consists of a row of non-permanent stalls and is also observed to be surrounding the densely populated settlements and four main Streets which are the Benyamin Sueb, Haji Ung, Kemayoran Gempol, and Bendungan Jago. Most of the traders come from the settlements behind the row of the market stalls and sell from morning to night except for those on the Kemayoran Gempol Street section, who are allowed to only trade up to late afternoon when traders with tents on the Street resume. These trading activities, however, lead to the closure of the Kemayoran Gempol Street and the tents used in the night market also cover the stalls of the Jiung Market merchant. Meanwhile, this market is acceptable to the residents and also the traders due to the long time existence of the Night Market activities in the place. There is, therefore, the need to understand the adaptation process to be implemented for the night market traders to be acceptable using the qualitative approach. It was discovered that a mutually beneficial relationship is the main reason the Night Market has survived up to the present moment. Moreover, the market was also found to have influenced the distribution of traders in several locations around the area but it is possible to inhibit the distribution growth through an architectural approach as a contribution towards the planning and design of urban public spaces in the country.
