As a public space, the plaza was limited due to its windswept nature and complete lack of focus with the exception of the steps to the bank. It was the steps as focus that caused the Bank to fence in part of the plaze to prevent foreign bankers having to walk over beer, curries and much worse.
Although the railings may be at odds with the design of the building, they really cannot be blamed for the destruction of the public space, as it was never very successful in the first place.
