The interiors of reconstructed extensive blocks of the historic Main Town in Gdansk are nowadays degraded areas, full of cars, with “holes” after never-finished archaeological excavations. It is not surprising that inhabitants avoid them. These are NON-PLACES. This situation prompts social movements to act. The first step towards the change was the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary project of revitalization of one of the backyards. The main issue was to find a way of its development accepted by users, economically justified and based on the cultural heritage of this unique city. This was noticed by the dwellers, the media and the local government as well. The second step - the implementation of the project - is in progress. Based on this example, the question could be asked how to improve public participation in development process to make it more inclusive and effective. The aim of the paper is to assess if Design Thinking methodology could help to strengthen dialogue in urban space. The project of development of the backyard in the Main Town in Gdansk can be an example that it might be the relevant method of solving problems in cities in the participatory way.
