Why “street smoking” is so controversial in cities, Tokyo? Residents have been suffered from butts of cigarette and danger of burn. Considering these situations, all cities in Tokyo have introduced code which restricts street smoking. However, the detailed contents of the code vary according to the condition of each city. Chiyoda City is the first city which fine smoking on the street, not only while walking but also while standing or sitting. On the other hand, the city has been subsidizing private sectors to set smoking spaces inside building and so on. This case study, we overlooked the codes for clean community then discussed the issues on current situation regarding street smoking and possibilities for coexistence among the various senses of value in public space in cities.
