In the era of rapid economic growth, most of the new towns that were built in the suburbs to deal with the demands on housing by an increasing urban population were built in especially developed hilly areas. Especially in the case of the initial new towns, the plans were constrained both technically and economically by the reclaimed hillside topography and as a result, there is a close correspondence between the formed spatial structures and the topography. Kozoji New Town is one of those new towns. The pedestrian ways were planned for along the ridges and the main roads for within the former valley and so the traffic lines of pede- strians and motorcars were separated three-dimensionally. As for the arrangement of the residential buildings within the housing complex, characteristics such as minimal foundations in ground with Paleozoic strata can be seen because of the difficulties in working it, and tower-type multi-story buildings with a small floor area were arranged instead. This study aims to understand the characteristics of the topography by comparing the landforms before and after the development of the two Japan Housing Corporation apartment complexes as well as to clarify more detailed characteristics about considerations given to the topography as can be seen in the open spaces and allocation of residential building in each residential area.
