Brower, Sidney N.; Williamson, Penelope

Environment and Behavior, 6, 3, 295-345, Sep 74

This paper is based upon a survey of open space uses for leisure-time activities in inner city Baltimore. Results of the study indicated that switching emphasis from public park areas to improved semiprivate areas would result in more effective use of open spaces and less expensive maintenance costs.
