In the middle of Greek town, there exists a small, public space with all the elements of a traditional European square. It seems that traditional habits and needs are still alive, even after a couple of generations. All the services, comforts and resources necessary are there.
Then there also is one fountain with running water, an important sound during summer nights; a few patios where one can have a bite or refreshments; a few quite comfortable benches where people can exchange experiences and ideas; a couple of mature trees to keep cool under that protect from the elements.
That was an observation when we first recorded our visit to this space in 2005. We recorded this square also in 2015. 10 and 20 years later it is quite improved. It is finally even named, Alexander the Great Parkette. Probably the same people from the neighbourhood, of course same as us 20 years older, are still there in the pleasant summer afternoon.
