'Broad places' in the Bible

Wisdom crieth aloud in the street; She uttereth her voice in the broad places;

Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lieth in wait at every corner.

In their streets they gird themselves with sackcloth; on their housetops, and in their broad places, every one waileth, weeping abundantly.

Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that doeth justly, that seeketh truth; and I will pardon her.
