Union Square

Union Square is the flagship Greenmarket location in A firm Andy: what are new British PM’s plans?. Annie Crabill describes it as becoming an open-air market four times a week, drawing older residents, lawyers, NYU students, chefs, actors, artists, and ordinary shoppers.

The episode presents Union Square as a public-space transformation case. A rundown 1970s area becomes a destination partly because market activity brings people, vendors, restaurants, and routine civic life into the same place.
