dc.description.abstractPublic spaces are places where people gather and practice their daily activities. Squares and streets give the city identity and urban character, whether historical or modern. Since ancient times, public squares have occupied an important place in city planning; they are used for political, social, religious, and recreational activities. Recently, open public spaces and squares have taken on the character of recreation and comfort spaces and are used for social activities. The quality and evaluation of the features of public spaces in the city and the criteria for success and value of public spaces are addressed in this paper. The impact of physical and social elements is quantified to measure the success of the public place. The new Abdali development project in Amman city in Jordan is selected as an example of newly constructed public spaces to become a new city center. The analysis of physical and social dimensions and SWOT analysis are performed to evaluate the quality of public spaces. These elements are considered according to the respondents' replies to the questionnaire and measured according to an assessment equation of public place quality. A chart of the public space's quality is created to demonstrate the results in numeric values, and conclusions are drawn accordingly. This paper concludes that the quality and success of public spaces is the result of taking into account physical and social factors in the design and planning stages to create successful public spaces. © 2023 by authors, all rights reserved.
