The classic example is libraries, but ideally I’m thinking of places you can have a conversation.

Interested in types of places (“libraries”) or specific places. Growing up we would wander around the local grocery store which was open 24 hours.

    Third spaces. Capitalism doesn’t like these as they don’t generate a profit. So there aren’t many left.

    Libraries, parks, anything publicly owned and accessible.

    There are some privately owned third spaces, like the inside of malls. But that’s about it I think.
