The Purpose of this study is to find out necessity and possibility of low-rise high density housing improving an old residential district of hillside areas. Housing of hillside areas should be maintained and it is necessary to make topographical adaptation plan. For this purpose, we calculate the floor area ratio to break even on case study area by GIS date. As a result, we found out that floor area ratio as minimum qualifications for the feasibility of urban redevelopment is 180%, and carried out a landscape simulation to a low-rise high density housing by AutoCAD 2004 and ArcView 3.2a. In results of simulations, it reveals that a rule to low-rise high density housing effective for topographical adaptation development.
