Abstract |
A plaza in Mixed-Use Development (MXD) is a place for gathering in the railway or subway station influence area that is planned to be redeveloped for the purpose of urban regeneration. This study aims to examine how a plaza in MXD works by analyzing its functions and to suggest the schemes to improve it. From a theoretical viewpoint, among many different functions of plaza in MXD, we particularly focus on the spatial environments. From the domestic case studies of the station influence areas, such as Samsung, Express bus Terminal, Seoul Station, Yongsan Station and Wangsimni, we find the functional relations by analyzing public facilities of plaza. In addition, the current usage of the plaza is observed through the analysis of space composition and plaza functions, plaza location requirements, urban surrounding factors, plan analysis and utilization. The results of this study are as follows. First, the buildings close to the plaza in MXD affect the facility factors and the functions of plaza. Second, the plaza in MXD of station influence area should be planned to include some more functions than traffic nodal point. Third, the plaza in MXD can achieve its complex functionality when non-physical facility factors are complementary to physical facility factors. |
