“Towers in a Park” was the ideal urban paradise of the International Style architects. It seldom worked well, and Father Pitt will tell you why: because the architects concentrated on the towers, and neglected the park. Gateway Center is one of the few really successful towers-in-a-park developments, and it is successful because the park is so attractive—benches everywhere, beautiful landscaping, and (of course) the vendors’ tents of the Three Rivers Arts Festival every June.

You are so right. It is absolutely beautiful and a place where people like to be.
