Abstract

With the perspective of urban morphology, this paper integrates historical maps to illustrate the morphological transformation of Boston Park System during 19th century. Based on such illustrations, cultural and political issues, geological issues and sanitary reform are concluded as main reasons for the transformations, thus to building up the relationship between space construction and its context.
