Glory is Savannah, Georgia

Exhibit A:

This is a view of Savannah from above. All those green things are city squares. Though Oglethorpe originally arranged them like this for military purposes, they have grown into these lush retreats that you run into literally every few blocks. I can get behind any city that supports public space, especially greenery in public spaces, but Savannah is ahead of the curve on this one. Fountains, greenery, tree canopies lining streets and squares alike...absolutely stunning.
