PRINCIPLE OF PLANNING
PRINCIPLE OF PLANNING
After the overall city planning, planners will know which land
will be used as waterfront land.
o People are born to love water. Some years ago, the riverbanks
were high and thick, block off people and water. Now people
can handle the water well, so they like to be as close as
possible.
o The Western Harbor also uses this way to separate the land,
which will be explained in the fourth section.

SETTLEMENT
PHASE - 1
A PORT IS ESTBLISHED
PHASE - 2
CITY DETACHES
As commerce and shipping expand
and industrialize in nature, the distance
between the shoreline and the
city center increases significantly.
PHASE - 3
DECLINE
As shipping decreases, or larger
facilities are developed elsewhere to
accommodate large modern ships, the
original shoreline is abandoned
PHASE - 4
REDISCOVERY
Redevelopment spearheaded by the
city’s redevelopment agency brings
about environmental cleanup and
reconnects the city to its waterfront
PHASE - 5
PRINCIPLES FOR SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT OF URBAN
WATERFRONT AREAS:
1. Water-dependent uses: Waterfront location is indispensable. Like
a field of ferryboat, marine terminals, ship repair and construction
works, commercial hunting’s can be
given examples to this group.
