Abstract:

Raleigh's public square proved a difficult venue for organizations trying to host private ticketed events. The design was such that a fire and safety hazard would be caused if patrons needed to leave the area quickly. Hopscotch was one such festival that was almost cancelled until the city came up with a design solution that utilized surrounding buildings and alleyways as natural barriers for events.
