Abstract
In the preceding paper (Part 2), we showed that the concept of the threshold and nucleus hypothesis in neighborhood was applicable to neighborhood planning from the territorialization point of view in a practical way. In this paper, we try to grasp the general ideas and methods of the neighborhood planning through analyzing various neighborhood planning samples of designed multi-dwelling housing developments including ones overseas on the basis of the above-mentioned concept. As a result, it is interesting to note certain basal ideas and methods of neighborhood plannings, particularly in overseas cases as follows: (1) the varied methods to establish identity of an individual dwelling unit; (2) additionally, the means to its positive participation with part of common space; (3) the establishment of the detailed thresholds around the dwelling unit; (4) the schemes to be positively willing to link dwelling units one another and to group them well; (5) the methods to subdivide the neighborhood into a smaller unit through making arrangements of the thresholds and unclei of territory; (6) the basal planning conditions concerning the mutual relationship among the common garden, space around it, communal facilities, and grouped dwelling units; (7) moreover, the fact that their planning methods are in succession to traditional ones.
