How do you awaken the hidden spirit of a public space?
Hostile, outdated, unloved: this is the popular image of Pershing Square in Downtown Los Angeles. Yet beneath the sun-baked surfaces of this historic park exist countless stories of refuge and reinvention. Redemption Square is an investigation of the soul of a park and the soul of a city, and of a major perceptual gap in Los Angeles that propels vicious cycles of demolition and misguided urban design.
