We attempt to examine the relationships between area characteristics and the changes of street-facing land uses by apartments. We, in particular, examine the issues of parking space mechanism in detail. The results can be summarized; 1) the differences in street-facing land uses derive mainly from original city blocks and site conditions. 2) In city blocks of smaller lots, smaller apartments have much parking space and less green. 3) In city blocks with larger lots, larger apartments have much green space and less parking although it varies diversely how these parking spaces are exposed to the streets.
