Abstract

Urban structures of the cities are one of the most complicated structures in
the whole world. It depends on many factors, that continuously change and develop them.
Among many research tools which can be helpful in understanding urban structure designing,
there is a Space Syntax method. This method of analyzing grid structures provides a lot of information about connectivity and integration of urban space as a research area. This method was used to perform an analysis of the urban tissue of the city of Lublin. Conclusions resulting from those analysis help identify weaknesses and problematic areas on urban
layout of Lublin, especially related to integration and connectivity of streets and may be used as a basis for further research.
