Monument construction was proposed as a new index on community recovery from the Hanshin-Awaji earthquake disaster. Three facilitating and two suppressing factors of monument construction were identified by using GIS and multiple regression analysis method. Three facilitating factors were that there was earthquake caused death, evacuation shelters and urban redeveloped. Two suppressing factors were that there was urban redevelopment where was earthquake caused death and temporary housing. The clue of community recovery can be obtained by paying attention to whether monument was constructed or not.
