50. “Most needed are those ‘third places’ which lend a
public balance to the increased privatization of home life.
Third places are nothing more than informal public
gathering places. The phrase ‘third places’ derives from
considering our homes to be the ‘first’ places in our lives,
and our work places the ‘second.’”
Ray Oldenburg,
Professor Emeritus, University of West Florida
