Abstract Seoul Metropolitan Government has continuously pursued the multi-centric city through City master plans since 1960s. Today, 3 major city centers consisting of Sadaemunan, Yeouido·Yeongdeungpo, Gangnam were approved as major city centers in the 2014 Seoul city master plan. The purpose of this study is to analyze the historical process how the 3 major city centers were developed remarkably from the planned multi-centers and to prove that City master plan has affected the formation of spatial structure in the long term. For this, this study reviewed the development of the multi-centric city concept in city master plans since 1960s. Results indicate that city master plan has affected the formation of spatial structure in the long term. More specifically, the multi-centric city concept of City master plan has affected facilities and functions that are responsible for the political, administrative, business and commercial functions to be located in 3 major city centers and subway lines. The first subway line were planned to consider urban spatial structure. The second and third subway lines were planned to reflect that Seoul urban spatial structure has already 3 major city centers. Thus, Seoul urban spatial structure was made with City master plans since 1960s.
