The purpose of this study is to present the problems of urban ecosystem imbalance in Seoul and the need to restore housing functions through comparison with Manhattan, New York, which grew earlier than Seoul and has been striving to solve urban problems and restore urban ecosystems. The residential status in urban commercial use areas was investigated through analysis of the total amount of residential space, characteristics of each type of residential building, and distribution of residential buildings. Through this, it can be seen that most of the space in Seoul's historic city center is biased toward commercial roads, and there are significantly insufficient high- and high-density mixed-use buildings suitable for urban dwellings compared to Manhattan's. In addition, it can be seen that the complex building in the historical city center of Seoul is located adjacent to the outskirts of the target site. In conclusion, Seoul's historical city center does not provide an appropriate residential space for creating an urban ecosystem, and it is necessary to come up with measures to restore housing functions.

The purpose of this study was to understand changes in Seoul's downtown planning from the 1960s to 1990s. The approach was examined by classifying its formation process though urban conservation. The effects of modernization and urbanization on Seoul's downtown planning were as follows. In the 1960s, Seoul attempted to decentralize urban functions due to excessive population. In the 1970s, a policy to diversify urban functions according to Gangnam development was enacted. In the 1980s, the existing downtown declined, and the sub-downtown grew with changing urban functions. In the 1990s, the identity of the existing downtown was recognized through the Seoul Memorial Project. This study also analyzed downtown planning efforts concerned with urban conservation. First, the physical aspects of existing buildings and street facilities were maintained. Second, the spatial aspects for the maintenance of surrounding areas were proposed. Fourth, the social aspects for accessibility by Seoul citizens was improved. This analysis demonstrates the concept of urban conservation based on physical-spatial-social aspects.

서울은 600년이 넘는 역사와 전통을 간직한 우리 나라의 심장이자 얼굴이 되는 도시이다. 그러나 지난 30년간의 급격한 개발시대를 거쳐오면서 고도로서의 문화적 향기를 상실하였고, 매력과 특징이 없는 도시로 빠르게 변해가는 것은 안타까운 일이다. 이는 다가올 21세기가 서울의 정체성과 고유성을 더욱 필요로 할 것임에 비추어 더욱 그러하다고 할 수 있다. 서울은 급격한 경제성장으로 인하여 세계에서 그 유래를 찾기 어려운 급격한 변화를 보인 도시이다. 서울의 도심부를 둘러싸고 있는 북악, 인왕, 낙산, 남산은 옛 모습을 지니고 있으나 그 내부는 과거의 모습을 찾기 어렵고, 다만 현대적인 모습만이 흘러 넘치고 있을 뿐이다. 또한 서울은 물리적으로 엄청나게 성장하여 그 경계를 찾기 어려운 도시가 되어버렸다. 따라서 서울은 밝고 번영하는 모습과 어둡고 불합리한 모습이 공존하는 이상한 도시로서 인식되고 있다. 서울을 현재의 모습과는 전혀 새로운 환경으로 개발하고 보존할 수 있는 대책과 계획이 더욱 필요한 때이다. 공공과 민간 그리고 시민이 참여하여 600년 고도의 역사성이 드러나고 걷고 싶고 인간적인 분위기를 간직하며 다양한 기능과 형태가 조화롭게 공존하는 도시로 가꾸어갈 수 있는 지혜를 모아야 할 것이다. 이번 특집에서는 서울을 대상으로 하여 그 역사적인 흔적과 오늘의 모습 그리고 미래의 대안을 회고하고 진단하며 모색하는 기회를 갖기 위해 여러 전문가들의 글을 마련하였다.

서울은 600년이 넘는 역사와 전통을 간직한 우리 나라의 심장이자 얼굴이 되는 도시이다. 그러나 지난 30년간의 급격한 개발시대를 거쳐오면서 고도로서의 문화적 향기를 상실하였고, 매력과 특징이 없는 도시로 빠르게 변해가는 것은 안타까운 일이다. 이는 다가올 21세기가 서울의 정체성과 고유성을 더욱 필요로 할 것임에 비추어 더욱 그러하다고 할 수 있다. 서울은 급격한 경제성장으로 인하여 세계에서 그 유래를 찾기 어려운 급격한 변화를 보인 도시이다. 서울의 도심부를 둘러싸고 있는 북악, 인왕, 낙산, 남산은 옛 모습을 지니고 있으나 그 내부는 과거의 모습을 찾기 어렵고, 다만 현대적인 모습만이 흘러 넘치고 있을 뿐이다. 또한 서울은 물리적으로 엄청나게 성장하여 그 경계를 찾기 어려운 도시가 되어버렸다. 따라서 서울은 밝고 번영하는 모습과 어둡고 불합리한 모습이 공존하는 이상한 도시로서 인식되고 있다. 서울을 현재의 모습과는 전혀 새로운 환경으로 개발하고 보존할 수 있는 대책과 계획이 더욱 필요한 때이다. 공공과 민간 그리고 시민이 참여하여 600년 고도의 역사성이 드러나고 걷고 싶고 인간적인 분위기를 간직하며 다양한 기능과 형태가 조화롭게 공존하는 도시로 가꾸어갈 수 있는 지혜를 모아야 할 것이다. 이번 특집에서는 서울을 대상으로 하여 그 역사적인 흔적과 오늘의 모습 그리고 미래의 대안을 회고하고 진단하며 모색하는 기회를 갖기 위해 여러 전문가들의 글을 마련하였다.

The purpose of this study is to explore changing attitudes towards old urban environments, represented in the comprehensive plans of Seoul, from the first 1966 plan through the most recent one of 2014. The results of analyzing all 6 Seoul urban comprehensive plans are as follows. The contents for considerations and actual planning actions for old urban environments were presented from the third comprehensive plan of 1990. The term 'historical heritage' was first applied in the urban park planning of the 1996 plan. In the 4th comprehensive plan of 1997, it began to regard historical landscapes as 'precious heritages' to make plans for using historical heritages in parts of landscape, education, and tourism. The scope of 'historical heritage' in the comprehensive plans has been expanded. This tendency continued to expand in the 5th plan of 2006, and again in the 6th plan of 2014. At the same time, in pursuing the identity of Seoul, 'historical heritage' in old urban environment came to be materialized further as planning objects.

This study was aimed at analyzing the location and the characteristics of the Urban hanok tissues that were formed in the downtown since 1920s. Focusing on the relationship between roads and lots, the developing process and the typological characteristics are examined. Through dividing the large and medium lots of the aristocratic families and on the hilly area near the Seoul City Wall, various shapes of urban hanok tissue were evolved. The urban hanok tissues developed before 1936 locate on the downtown sites, while those developed after 1936 locate on the hilly sites. The location of the tissues were identified in the upper area of Jong-no street. The former is composed of small size lots divided into average area $104.4m^2$ with the narrow alleys of about 2.0m width, while the latter is composed of medium size lots divided into average area $131.54m^2$ with the alleys of about 4.0m width. Moreover the structures of the tissues were evolved based on the developing period and the site condition. Moreover the structures of the tissues were evolved based on the developing period and the site condition. The typological characteristics were defined as the four patterns categorized with the bilateral concepts of alley's form and of alley's spacial feature.

This study examines the change of Shinchon railway station in Kyungui Railway from 1920 up to now. Kyungui Railway was constructed in order to prepare the war against Russia by Japan in 1905. Shinchon station was constructed in 1920 for the sake of convenience of people who lived near Seoul. Recently the development of Shinchon staton was demended because of the possibilities of economic development and the location of Shinchon station. But at the same time there are many opinions against the development of Shinchon station because it has many great memories and it is a kind of symbol of modem life in Shinchon. Even though Shinchon station has developed for a shopping center, the location of the old station has been kept. But the shape had changed because of the new railway station. So the purpose of this paper is considering how to solve the conflicts between the development and the preservation of historic places in the cities which is one of the most serious pending issues.

The purpose of this study is to illuminate the meaning of the soundscapes of two bells, Daeheung-dong Cathedral and Sungsimdang in Eunghang-dong, which are landmarks and attractions in the historic downtown of Daejeon. The study was conducted through field research and recordings, as well as literature studies of related documents and soundscape theory. Daejeon city was developed along with Daejeon Railway Station during the Japanese colonial period in the early 20th century. As the Chungnam Provincial Office moved to Daejeon, Daeheung-dong and Eunhang-dong in Jung-gu, located near Daejeon Station, developed significantly and formed the city centre. As major administrative agencies moved to Seo-gu in the 1990s, the downtown area of Daejeon was on a path of decline, and the decline accelerated with the development of Sejong city. Meanwhile, Daeheung-dong Cathedral and Sungsimdang, founded by refugees during the Korean War, firmly protected the historic downtown area of Daejeon, where the natives left. Daeheung-dong Cathedral, established during the Japanese colonial period, is a local landmark with a history of 100 years in 2019. Sungsimdang, which was created with the backdrop of the Korean War, is also a historical and cultural asset with a history of 60 years and a local landmark selected as the No. 1 tourist attraction in Daejeon. This research, which started from the sound of the bells of Daeheung-dong Cathedral, heard even in the neighboring residential areas, led to the discovery of the bells of Sungsimdang in Eunhang-dong, located across the street. In this paper, the bells of Daeheung-dong Cathedral and Eunhang-dong Sungsimdang have characteristics of soundmarks according to R. Murray Schafer's soundscape sound category. Furthermore, this paper attempted to analyze the meaning of the two bells according to the relatively recent EU soundscape definition. These two bells are signal sounds at the surface level, but are the sound marks of the historic downtown area of Daejeon at the deep level. Although there are outward differences in size, scale, frequency, and famousness, these two bells share a meaning in terms of locality and good influence with the historicity and spatiality of a special relationship. The implication of this study is that the two places should be preserved as local historical and cultural assets not only as visual landmarks but also as sound marks in the urban regeneration or urban development of Jung-gu, Daejeon.
