Abstract The purpose of this research is to investigate the progress of Jinhae city's spatial configuration since the era of Japanese Imperialism, and to discover the characteristics of the city's configuration from the perspective of space syntactic changes. The following is the list of observations that we made by the analysis. First, the global integrated space of the city is moving from the western part -the old town of the city, to the eastern part- the new town of the city, which implies that the most integrated space of the whole street composition is moving according to the expansion of the city. Second, the number of local integrated space was one initially. But as the city expands, the number has increased up to three. The three local integrated space maintain their own local characteristics. Third, the three local integrated space take as similar spatial patterns as the global integrated space. That is, the levels of integration and connectivity of the three central places and the city are high. The central roads of the city called Jung-ang-ro and the three central places are connected. That makes easy to recognize their overall street compositions.
