Introduction BACKGROUND Traditional Neighborhood 1900s

  • Compact and Uniform Layout
  • Humanity Scale
  • Shading Facility (Grey and

Green Infrastructure)

Modern Neighborhood 2000s

  • High Rise Building
  • Over Wide Street
  • High Sky Explosion

  • What we can learn from the strategy

adopted in such local neighborhoods to respond their climate, and furthermore, how apply the historical experience on current urban form design to improve the pedestrian thermal comfort?

CONCLUSION

Common

  • Wind decreased by porosity increasing;
  • The value of A/B between 0.75-0.5 achieve better thermal comfort in both

canyon type; Difference

  • Neighborhood layout effect the thermal comfort in alley street significantly;
  • Better thermal comfort for pedestrian in W-E oriented Arcade street

Further research

  • Canyon with greenery respond varying neighborhood layout
  • Influence of wind direction
  • Combination different canyon type in different oriented street
