Abstract
The purpose of this study is to interpret space syntactically how the characteristics of urban spatial configuration centered in commercial gentrification area in Seoul can have an influence on gentrification. Based on Space Syntax index, commercial gentrification can be classified into planned, mixed, and spontaneous types. The results of analyzing the change in franchise distribution by type of urban spatial structure are as follows: First, the Planned type is easily accessible and recognizable, which makes gentrification emerge with ease even in side streets, and it tends to expand to major streets with high Integration. Second, in the spontaneous type, gentrification is linearly converted in the street with high Integration_R3 due to the limitation of cognition and accessibility of walking. Third, gentrification is highly related to urban spatial structure, and has more connection in the planned type. These factors show that the urban spatial structure has an influence on the occurrence of commercial gentrification, and it is possible to follow the details of the occurrence process in a time-series analysis.
