Abstract
The structure of evaluation of a river space in a city is studied at the Kanda river and the Syakujii river which are typically urbanized in Tokyo. The river space is devided into the physical space and the psychological space. The influence of the geometrical characteristics of the upper- and mid- Kanda river on evaluation of the physical river space is examined. A preferable structure of river space is gained by the psychophysical approach. The cognitive model for evaluation of the psychological river space is presented. The difference of the structures of evaluation is examined at two zones in the Syakujii river using the model.
