PPS started in 1975 by studying the dynamics of small urban spaces. 50 states, 40 countries and nearly 3000 communities later, our focus has grown to include a wide range of public spaces, from civic squares to public transportation centers, public markets to federal buildings, and more. Below is a sampling of our projects sorted according to our nine different program areas. For more information about a project or to see how PPS can help in your community, please contact Ethan Kent.
