| Research Abstract |
This research is focused on the nature of these town planning systems in the early modern castle town, and the comparison of the formation and transition of the plane type plan which is thought to be preceded by the belt-shaped type with the emergence of the castle town with the belt-shaped town planning.
As for the formation of the belt-type town ward, this type can be seen in Shokuhou-type castle towns in early modern period. In the belt-type, there are 2-3 streets situated side by side between the castle and old town area, and the town had been the economic base of its area, so the new castle town was designed to take in the old area.
This type of land allotment is found in Komaki and Gifu founded by Oda Nobunaga. This type of planning can be found at several castle towns of Shokuhou-type in the later phase, so this type of land allotment was thought to be the basic town planning of the Shokuhou-type castle town in that period.
Another type of town planning, plane type town planning, emerged in the Middle period in shu-son aggregated town or temple attached type towns (jinai-machi town). In this type of town the differentiation in social hierarchy was found inside the town.
To examine the changing process of two types, Osaka castle town is one of the most favorable samples. In Temma jinai-machi town, there had been belt shape town planning, and allotments were arranged on both sides of the street, so the jinai-machi town was assumed to have been changed into belt-type one. Later, the temmajinai-town was removed to Kyoto, and reformed into belt-type, both-sides town planning.
In conclusion, during the construction of early modern castle town, restructuring of plane type town planning into the belt-type plan was undertaken.
