The purpose of this study is to prepare and present a method for managing and manipulating skyline in Suwon city, from the view point of historical landscape preservation.
In this study, the historical landscape is defined as the urban landscape which has the elements of historical spaces, and the high-rise building is defined as a building of eight or more stories.
Sixteen key view points, through the field survey, are selected from sixty five candidate view points. Based on field survey and key views, sensitivity map has been drawn. The key view points, key views, and sensitivity map are the devices for the management of urban skyline.
Because the view to the historical landscapes is a very important component of urban landscape management, it is necessary to provide systematic and effective ways of controlling urban skyline. Further more, landscape impact evaluation system needs to be adopted as a part of high-rise building permission process.
