public green space
Town's shared meadow
Public green space is an outdoor area with grass, trees, or other vegetation that's open to everyone—parks, gardens, plazas, and similar grounds maintained for community use.
Urban planners emphasize public green space for recreation, mental health, and environmental benefits: The neighborhood lacks adequate public green space.
Often shortened to green space.
