Authors have been conducting the field research under the title ‘Origin, Transformation, Alteration and Conservation of Urban Space of Colonial cities’ since 1999. Focusing on the Spanish Colonial urban process and formation in Cuba, authors wrote several papers through the analysis of the colonial maps AGI (The Archive of the Indies in Seville-Archivo de Indias de Sevilla) collected. We pick up Habana, which was the capital of Cuba and one of the 14 walled Spanish colonial cities, as a target city in this paper. Habana is thought as a prototype of early Spanish colonial cities.
This paper clarifies the formation process of Habana Vieja (Intramuros) based on the analysis of historical maps and street pattern and block size.
