    The document discusses plans to connect fragmented public spaces in Caracas, Venezuela through the creation of promenades and micro-connections. It identifies existing voids like plazas, parks, and empty lots that could be linked. The goal is to establish a network of public spaces that connects the city center to outer areas. Diagrams show how proposed promenades and arteries could divide sites into zones while also joining the fragments together and to the city center.
