Abstract This study aims to explore the modern city design tradition of problem-solving efforts in planned community-making, and to discuss a set of derived lessons for improving the neighborhood design practiced in Korea. To do so, the study suggests to understand a set of community design principles: (1) physical scale of centralized neighborhood units; (2) functional layout of open space and service alley; (3) look and materials of community building; (4) social programming on centralized and decentralized block structure. This study concludes with problem identification and suggestions for emerging community development practice: (1) development scale and intensity guided by household density; (2) use programming based upon a matrix of surrounding function and resident profile; (3) vertical neighborhood unit responding to high-rise residential structure with highly-densed underground use; (4) plan-making first followed by zoning ordinance to realize the plan.
