The rapid growth of most of the cities around the world have been influenced greatly by the
economic boom as manifested in the urban spaces such as streets which previously had
their own image as places of interaction that has been exploited and slowly vanishing. The
result is where the character of the street has no coherent sense of place. This paper
examined the identity of place in terms of the physical characteristics and the activities that
determine the distinctive features of the place; by using the street of Jalan Tuanku Abdul
Rahman of Kuala Lumpur city center, Malaysia as a case study. The study adopted the
qualitative method in data collection and analysis with quantitative data as supporting
evidence. The data collected by the survey are the people’s description of the appearance
and distinctiveness of the street. The qualitative approach adopted three techniques namely
mental map, photo recognition interview and visual survey. The paper discusses the physical
characteristics and the activities associated with street identity that generate the sense of the
place. |
