The rendering you posted looks terrible and is exactly the kind of barren and uninviting open space beloved since the towers in the park took over.

And if you honestly can't tell the difference between plazas used in a traditional context and order and these modernist plazas, then I'm not sure what to say to convince you otherwise (not that I could do so even if I could find the words). Needless to say, there are a variety of differences between classic traditional plazas and these modernist ones (which have been pretty nice articulated by other posters).
