public urban space
I would perfer "public urban space"
But as an alternative, "public landscape" could be used, depending upon the context and usage (ie more litteray).

P.S. Kungsträdgården has a most intersting political/cultural history - consider the tunnelbana protests of the sixties.

or actually "urban landscape" could be used, even more literary.

cityscape
The following is from the reference link below, at page 76:
"The ‘before’ condition in Stockholm illustrates many
of the problems with new urban areas. The streets are wide,
the traffic is fast, and the target group is motorists. There
is smooth, corporate architecture with little ground-level
interaction which makes for an uninspired cityscape for the
sidewalk-dweller."
