Informal sportthe flat southern half, between the Botero cat and carrer de Sant Pau
Teenagers put jumpers down for goals on the wide southern half after school and play until the light goes. The northern half, up by the cat, stays with the benches and the strollers.

Informal marketthe central strip between carrer de l'Hospital and carrer de Sant Rafael
Trestle stalls of produce and crafts run down the middle of the strip on weekend mornings. By early afternoon they are packed away and the same stone is back to football and scooters.

Sitting and talkingthe ring of benches around the Botero cat, at the northern end
The benches by the cat are where people wait for each other and where neighbours sit out after dinner. The palms keep that strip cooler than the narrow streets either side on a summer night.
