新建后的广场与周边的城市环境相互联系在一起，同时提供了许多座位区，人们可以来这里吃午饭，或者只是歇歇脚，欣赏这座城市美丽的风景。在之前，广场的西北区域和东南方向的部分区域种植了大量的植被，但是设计师们将这些植被都移除了，同样被移除的还有闲置很长时间的喷泉，喷泉很小，只占据了场地的一个角落。新建的广场开放后，周边的街道也进行了一定程度的美化，无论是晴天还是阴天，人们都喜欢坐在这里聊天聚会。整个广场上设施就像是一条长龙来回弯曲盘旋，现在已经成为纽约市的地标性景观之一，受到了游客们的青睐。

In 1992, the Federal Government undertook the repair of the waterproofing for the underground garage beneath the Jacob Javits Plaza. Because the existing plaza would be demolished during the waterproofing construction, there arose an opportunity to revitalize the plaza. The new plaza is reconnected to its surrounding context and provides innumerable seating opportunities for people having lunch or just for watching other people. Large planters which formerly existed at the northwest and southeast corners of the site have been removed, as well as the long-empty fountain which had occupied the only sunny portion of the site. By opening up the plaza, the connections between the plaza and the street are reestablished, and the people who wish to sit can do so in either sun or shade. The design itself offers a wry commentary on the fact that while New York remains a cultural mecca for most art forms, exploration in landscape architecture receives little support.
