Square
I would go with square as "open space" doesn't work well in this context but there may be an existing preferred translation so would check with the client.

Piazza or square
I think that "piazza" would be an interesting translation albeit a bit posh or European perhaps. Of course, square would be fine too. I'm just offering an alternative.
