Abstract |
This paper aims to explore whether the “Campus Fence Afforestation Project", which is one of the Seoul's green strategies, has contributed to a qualitative and quantitative improvement in civic life. Therefore, this study defined these created places in this purpose as "Neighborhood Green Space". In doing so, three main factors of "Neighborhood Green Space" were drawn and used as a measure to evaluate "Campus Fence Afforestation Project". The physical characteristic of Campus Fence Afforestation Project was elaborated, while at the same time interviews and questionnaire were canvassed for the local aspiration. This combined analysis resulted in the importance of "Campus Fence Afforestation Project" located specially in Kangbuk area in Seoul due to a lack of neighborhood green space compared to Kangnam are. More over, it is essential to build an utilizable space as an agent of urban open space - which acts like a "functional park" rather than just a "green space" - for a revitalization. |
