A comparative Study to Show the Effect of Reducing Urban Space on Spatial Organization

Abstract

The most important characteristic of the neighborhood is its ability to achieve one of its basic functions, which is the recreational function achieved by green spaces to serve the population. The most important criteria for sustainable neighborhood design. The aim of the research is a comparative study of two neighborhoods in which the area of green areas has been reduced in favor of increasing the area of residential use without referring to the principles of urban design. The descriptive approach was adopted in the study of the detailed plans, as well as the analytical method using the method of analysis of variance and chi-square to show the knowledge of the effect that occurred in the two study areas. Then the results of the research and recommendations were reached, which represented the need to return to dealing with the human scale in the regulation of land use in the residential area, on the basis that effective regulation of land use in the neighborhood leads to the creation of a sustainable environment.
