Description
Summary:Configurations of morphology and structure of urban spaces develop based on the pattern and capacity of generators and its actions. A phenomenon occurring in Banjarmasin, a city crisscrossed by many rivers, started as a riverine cultural habitationbased city. It developed towards a city with land-based settlement in the Dutch colonial period. The Dutch carried out the development by moving the center of the city growth to a city control system in the form of a fortress as the magnetic pull or attraction. Now this area has developed into the center of Banjarmasin. This long process has becn a process of evolution and environmental conditions have deteriorated. In addition, the orientation of development of the structure of urban space has been los~T. hrough space syntax analysis, the study found that connectivity, integrity. and intelligibility, which are the concepts underlying the morphological and structural configurations of urban space, are not sufficient when they are only based on the concepts oi networks and morphological patterns.
