As there are many who might wish to utilize, and even create
more of, such publicly accessible spaces will you please...

a) List the full name, street address, and location within,

b) The specifications to which such space was built,
and subsequently that it currently maintains adherence to.

Otherwise this is useless commentary.
Thanks.
