근린생활권 내 지역주민의 생활반경을 고려한 도시유휴공간 활용에 관한 연구

Abstract

(Background and Purpose) Urban regeneration plans and methods of planning public space are studied and proposed diversely to solve urban problems. Among them, projects of selecting idle spaces or sites and regenerating towns and regions are especially on the rise. Despite continuing plans and implementation, there is insufficient data discussing plans concerning idle facilities and spaces in living areas. Based on this background, this study aims to reveal causes of idle urban spaces and facilities for reusing idle spaces and research cases of reusing idle spaces on the grounds of precedent studies addressing the potential of idle spaces. Moreover, it intends to analyze how the reuse of idle spaces affects local residents and regions. (Method) Studies the meaning and types of idle urban spaces and identifies the causes of urban facilities and spaces becoming idle. Additionally, the potential of idle urban spaces studied previously is classified by types of idle spaces, along with case studies, to understand the current phenomenon of their reuse in the city. Discusses the possibility of using idle urban spaces based on neighborhoods and outdoor activities. Lastly, the effects of using idle spaces per case are analyzed from ecological environmental, urban environmental, and sociocultural perspectives based on the data of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport to study the value and advantages of using idle spaces in neighborhoods. (Results) Reusing idle spaces and facilities in neighborhoods and living areas by priority can derive the following effects: First, reusing idle facilities and spaces in neighborhoods as infrastructure can achieve effects like budget reduction and decrease of waste from ecological environmental perspective. Second, since idle spaces and facilities form the cause of creating an underdeveloped environment and crime-ridden districts in the region urban-environmentally, physical improvement of these can provide residents with stable and pleasant environment. Finally, from sociocultural perspective, these plans can become a starting point for settling chronic local problems and build foundation for local residents' self-reliance and self-generation, providing a sustainable outdoor-activity base. (Conclusions) This study derived that, in urban regeneration and public space plans, it is favorable to prioritize selecting idle facilities and spaces in neighborhoods considering local residents' accessibility, and for sustainable use, it is necessary to plan a structure where local communities or town enterprises can manage and restore them to local communities based on a virtuous cycle. This study has significance in studying the reuse of problematic spaces and places in living areas as facilities for residents, and is expected to be utilized as basic data for planning the use of idle urban spaces and facilities in neighborhoods.
