Large-scale residential areas are an important part of urban environment. The present condition of the outdoor territory in Latvia in the 21st century has both positive and negative characteristics. These characteristics greatly affect further development of these multi-storey residential area courtyards. Consequently, the chosen theme on the multi-storey residential area courtyards in Latvia is topical and essential for development of any urban environment. Multi-storey residential area courtyards in Latvia can be divided into two major groups that differ from each other with the period of construction. One group comprises those courtyards built in the second half of the 20th century, and the other group – courtyards planned and constructed in the 21st century. The method chosen and applied in the research helped define the current condition of multi-storey residential area courtyards. The examples chosen and analysed by the author of the present paper provide information on typical development tendencies of residential outdoor territories in multi-storey residential area courtyards in Latvia. The results obtained in the research are essential and topical, and can be considered in development plans for any other municipality of Latvia, especially for planning, landscaping and renovating the living environment in multi-storey residential area courtyards. The quality of living environment in courtyards greatly affects its exploitation intensity for everyday and recreation necessities for every resident of the area.
