| Summary, etc. | The concept of the neighborhood unit was firstly formulated by Perry in 1929. It has been extensively used to define residential areas and has played an important role in providing the framework for the setting of residential environmental standards. However, it is not a panacea. Due to changes in social structure, the concept has already received a lot of attacks. Therefore, many planning professionals tried to raise possible alternatives and made a variety of modifies. Even though the paradigm is not the only model in physical design, and despite some of its shortcomings, in the area of residential design, it seems that no alternatives have been found. Recently, many case studies related to the concept of the neighborhood unit have been done in various countries. But most of these previous studies usually selected several "planned" neighborhood units which fully applied the concept of the neighborhood unit, and excluded the "unplanned" residential areas that did not use the concept to plan. As a result, the value of the findings from these researches for the future physical design of a residential area is doubtful. In order to explore whether the concept of the neighborhood unit can achieve physical functions and some presumed social functions related to physical design, this research selected a planned neighborhood unit and an unplanned neighborhood unit and compared their effectiveness. Based on a survey questionnaire and some secondary data, this research applied chi-square test, T test, stepwise regression analysis, and discriminant analysis methods to explore and compare the physical and social effectiveness of the neighborhood unit concept in the planned neighborhood unit. It was found that the concept can only accomplish few physical and social functions. Among 29 evaluation criteria, only were 9 criteria found to be successful, 4 criteria to be failure, and 16 criteria to be indifferent from the unplanned neighborhood unit. At the end of the research, a new model for physical design in residential area was raised which is thought to be suitable for Taiwanese environments and can achieve physical and social functions. Moreover, the research suggested that the planners should have the responsibility to monitor the implementation of the neighborhood unit planning until his/her planning conceptions are implemented. |
