role as a meeting space
Explanation:
or 'role in providing meeting places'.

To me it sounds like the phrase is referring to the role of the built environment in providing spaces for people to gather, like market places, piazzas, public buildings, that sort of thing. Not necessarily attractions, just public spaces.

HTH :)
