Abstract Urban public square is an open space. Its special common-shared effect as well as its related effect meets the demand of the modern urban people. Under the background, the construction of urban public square is surging vigorous mass campaign all over our country. However, influenced by the traditional urban design and plan ideas, this surge couldn't avoid falling into a lot of mistaken areas. In the current time, post-modernism, as a modern philosophy and culture trend in the West, mainly probes into the new feature, the new contradiction and the culture trend. Humanism is the essential spirit connotation of post-modernism. Post-modernism has penetrated into those related fields, which leads to the changes on the humanizing reform of urban spatial structure and urban capacity. On the basis of the situation, according to the demand and principle of human-based management, the authors put forward some suggestions to the mainstream of the humanizing construction of urban square in our country listed below. First, we should establish proper post-modern public administration system and enforce the control and guidance on urban square construction. Second, for the purpose of meeting the demands of the individual scope and population scale, we should take proper capacity of urban square into consideration and build urban square properly. Third, we ought to pay more attention to multi-function in capacity and systematic in location. At last, in order to emphasis on the characteristic and feature of the urban square, we need stick to the conceptions not only of ecological ethics but also of substantial development. Post-modernism has different contents and attitudes, which requires us to analysis in detail according to practical condition. This paper merely puts forward some simple suggestions on urban public square construction under the post-modernism.
