범죄율 감소를 위한 도시재생 계획기법 연구

Abstract

Urban regeneration plays a pivotal role in enhancing urban safety and residents' quality of life while being closely linked to reducing urban crime rates through transformative changes in city spaces. The improvement of infrastructure, parks, and public facilities connected to residential areas has a profound impact on addressing urban crime issues within communities.
 This study focuses on Mitte, a district in the German capital Berlin, where successful crime rate reduction was achieved through urban regeneration initiatives in high-crime areas. The research conducts a comprehensive case analysis of urban regeneration plans and strategies to identify the specific attributes contributing to crime reduction and the strategic approaches used for crime prevention environment design. The analysis of Mitte's Leopolaplatz area reveals two distinct features of crime prevention environment design implemented through urban regeneration: physical space rejuvenation and enhanced social integration. The rejuvenation of physical spaces involves a clear distinction between private and public areas. The findings of the analysis are as follows: Firstly, urban regeneration of private spaces results in an improvement in residents' sense of ownership and increased surveillance. Secondly, the regeneration of public spaces strengthens their identity and image, promoting a more organic form of surveillance. Lastly, the physical urban regeneration of both private and public spaces contributes to a safer urban environment. The implementation of community strengthening programs further enhances community cohesion.
