 <br>
+Green space represents a basic human necessity of remain in contact, on some level, with nature. Most American cities take a measured departure from maintaining modern green space as progress and innovation demand more space. London stands out as an example of a European high-density 'compact city' progressive not only it technology as well as public green spaces. London benefits from a long history with green spaces, allowing implementation green space in the evolving cityscape at such a level.

 ==Hyde Park==
 Hyde park consisting of over 350 acres land stands as one of London's most famous royal park. While Hyde Park's land has likely been in use for millennia, the history of the land as a park dates back to Henry VII "acquiring" it from the monks of Westminster Abbey in 1536, as part of his establishment of the Church of England. Once under his authority, Henry VII and his court used the land as a hunting ground to the hunt for deer and similar game. Hyde Park would remain a private hunting ground until James I came to the throne and permitted limited access to non-royals. James I made the pivotal decision of establishing Hyde Park as a park for the people with his opening the land to the general public in 1637. Over the years following its establishment as a royal park, Hyde Park has changed in its appearance and well as its use by Londoners. In 1665, Londoners fled to camp on Hyde Park, in the hope of escaping the pervasive disease in the city. By end of the 17th century, Royalty called for adding artificially lighting along a path frequented by the new king, William III. Lit by 300 oil lamps, King's Road, more famously known as Rotten Row, became the first road in England to be lit at night. The next renovations came in the 1730s with Queen Caroline, wife of George II, pushing for extensive renovations carried out. Of these renovations, the most significant notable was the construction of Hyde Park's Serpentine, the parks massive human-made lake.<ref>History and Architecture. (2017).

Burton went on to replace the park's walls with railings and designed several new lodges and gates, as well. From then on, majority of how Hyde Park appears today is Decimus Burton left it back almost 200 years ago.<ref>Landscape History. (2017).
