The paper describes the initiative of UN-Habitat organisation for the creation of Charter of Public Space and the draft of this document. Next the definition of “place” is provided and the definitions of social capital and the bond between social capital and place attachment are presented. The actions proposed nowadays to create places are described. The two approaches – first: lighter, quicker, cheaper proposed by PPS - Project for Public Spaces organisation and the second one: costly investments undertaken by many municipalities. The need for plants in public space is underlined. Final conclusions for small and middle towns are proposed at the end.
