This paper discusses to examine the construction process of Shiga Park completed in 1931 in Nagoya, and to define its historical urban planning implications before World War II. Shiga Park, based on the "Master Plan of Park in Nagoya" in 1926, was the earliest project of the development through the private land readjustment in Japan at that time. KANO Tsutomu, who was the planner of the “Master Plan of Park in Nagoya”, designed Shiga Park as a natural combined with modern park facilities and deciduous forests. Although Shiga Park was opened as part of park planning areas, integrated garden paths constructed on both the parkland and the remaining land of park planning areas that provided for development of park in the future. As work progress, the land readjustment union deepened their understanding of the significance of a modern park, decided to make two small parks voluntarily. Both the economic success of Shiga Park and Park promotion measures from 1932 amended the civil recognition of a modern park in Nagoya before World War II, and this trend prompted the donation of land by beneficiaries in cases such as Higashiyama Park completed in 1937.
