Abstract
This study aims to clarify the characteristics of the large-scale multi-story apartment houses that have been supplied in Taipei city. As the first phase of the study, this paper describes the brief history and the outlines of the housing policy of Taiwan and Taipei City. In addition, the supply condition of the Public Housing and the Private Condominium are analyzed from the viewpoint of time-line and development scale. The main conclusions are as follows. 1) In Taipei City, the subdivisions (apartment houses for sale) have widely spread than any other cities of Taiwan. 2) The result of analyses on the supply condition of the multi-scale apartment almost for 30 years from 1970 to 2000 shows that the basic character of the public sector as "the development on large-scale lot with small number of dwellings". 3) While the high-rise building and the floor area per dwelling tend to increase, the building coverage and the density of dwellings tend to decrease after 1990's, remarkably in the private sector.
