Abstract: Abstract: In an urban setting, large scale private residential development has become the main stream of leading the housing market, and in certain degree it is also leading the economy of the entire city. These developments do provide its own residents a high quality of environment and spaces that can increase the development's value. At the same time these private residential developments have to create common space or so called quasi public space for the general public to enjoy as well. These common and public spaces in private developments may enhance the environment by bringing liveliness and vibrancy to the place. However the quality and quantity of these common spaces in large scale private residential developments are seems decreasing and focuses of such development were shifted onto creating a better gated community. The objective of this research is trying to discover whether recent private residential development are tended to have less common space or have more restricted common space than old and other types of residential development. The study will be based on case study in Hong Kong. Three private housing estates that were built in different time period, including Mei Foo Sun Chuen, Whampoa Garden and Olympian City will be chosen and their quality of common space will be analyzed in this research. 2 Pag e DOI: 10.5353/th_b3955849 Subjects: Public spaces - China - Hong KongResidential real estate - China - Hong Kong
