Tokyo once planed networked linear open spaces in their Post-War Reconstruction Plan after WW2. The purpose of this study was to clarify how much planning philosophy had been put in the open space plan and how well the plan had been realized. We focused on the concept of open space along rivers, cliff lines, and railways. We found that substantial amount of planned open space did not belong to any of open space types. We also found that several linear-shaped parks were made along railways and rivers in following development projects, which indicated the partial realization of planning philosophy.
