Abstract This study analyzes pedestrian behavior observed within the quasi-public intermediate space around high-rise residential complexes and extracts design attributes influencing the quality of pedestrian activities. A street survey is conducted to measure design attributes related to the quasi-public intermediate space, such as the amount of street furniture, existence of access Barriers, planting pattern for street trees, and facade transparency at the ground level. Pedestrian activities are measured and recorded quantitatively. Based on both street survey and pedestrian behavior observation, two regression models are estimated: one on general pedestrian activities and the other on the activities representing the level of social interaction. Our research findings will help design the quasi-public intermediate space in such a way that we can promote more pedestrian activities and social interaction.
