The Analysis on Changes in Situations and Development Obstacles to Regeneration of Residential Area: Focusing on Detached Housing Units in Downtown of Daegu

This study analyzes how the detached housing units in downtown of Daegu have changed and what are the main obstacles to developing residential areas in comparison with those in 2001. For the past 13 years, the detached housing sections in downtown of Daegu have experienced noticeable changes only in Samduk district and some roadsides whose physical conditions such as roads are comparably good, while those in other areas have deteriorated. In Samduk district, multi-household houses have been constructed or some buildings on roads have been converted for commercial use, and there were no improvements in the infrastructure such as improved structural road systems and expanded parks. In other words, due to the development of high density, Samduk district has lost its appeal as a housing section rather than has been improved fundamentally in residential environment. The findings of this study imply that improvement of detached housing areas in downtown would not be made only by residents’ voluntary efforts without the intervention of the public sector. Thus in order to regenerate the residential housing sections in downtown, a policy should be implemented in accordance with the recent urban regeneration policies by the government authorities. For example, various incentive programs should be developed to vitalize the reconstruction with voluntary participation of the residents. Such incentive programs have already been implemented in Osaka, Japan, so it is called for to benchmark them.
