Abstract
Urban “green space” provides an essential contribution to the quality of life of urban citizens. In many European towns and cities, attractive urban parks and squares, woodlands, green corridors, nature reserves and recreational areas can be found. Often, urban green space is a legacy of earlier decades and in relatively few urban areas has the planning and development of an urban green infrastructure been approached in a comprehensive manner. The importance of urban green space was recognized by Camillo Sitte (1889) more than 100 years ago.
