Pattern 24
Sacred Sites
Problem
Treat the places a community holds especially dear as ordinary building land, and they quietly disappear in the course of development, taking a piece of shared memory with them.
Solution
Deliberately recognize the places a community holds sacred or deeply meaningful, and preserve them as distinct, tangible points within the fabric of the city, rather than treating them as ordinary building land.
