Abstract
This study is to consider how “Kaishochi” (the open space in the block), which was planned in initial Edo town, transformed into the housing lot, emphasizing on Minamidenma-cho. To understand the changing process of “Kaishochi” I based my analysis from the historical maps and historical records of Minamidenma-cho. The analysis of this paper consists of three contents;(1) the formation process of “newly developed alley” when “Kaishochi” became the housing lot in Minamidenma-cho, (2) inspection of the fact that the substitute lot for “newly developed alley” moved to “Kaishochi”, (3) change in a role burden by the substitute lot.
To consider the process that “Kaishochi” transformed into the housing lot, “newly developed alley” is built, and it has been developed while moving the lot instead of “newly developed alley” to “Kaishochi”.
