Probably mostly sitting and talking, in the shade and on the chairs put out in the narrow streets, with kids taking the playground end late afternoon and groups gathering there after dark.
Late afternoon the playground end belongs to families and the noise is all kids; by night the other end, the benches and the open bit, is a standing spot for people starting the evening off the main strip.

On the hot nights, chairs come out of doorways onto the pavement in these streets and people sit out under the washing lines until it cools. It's residential, not a scene — walk through, don't stop and stare.

Same benches, two different squares depending on the hour: older neighbours in the morning shade with the newspaper, and after dark the same spot is where groups stand around waiting for the rest to turn up before moving on.

Mornings it's the wait-here spot — people park themselves on the benches outside with the shopping while someone finishes inside. After school the same square is the neighbourhood kids' ground.
