The most obvious characteristics in recent urban land consolidation areas are that the new high rise residential buildings and the straight grid road network system. The purpose of this study is to investigate how both factors affect the commercial activities in Lujhou Nagangzi land consolidation area. The residential buildings are the main building type in Nangangzi Urban Land Consolidation area. However, other types of functions would occur on the first floor of those residential buildings. In this study, residential buildings are divided into four types. Then according to the data of field survey, analyze how each type of residential buildings influence the distribution and properties of these functions. This study found that the new residential buildings are different from traditional apartment buildings. New buildings have higher proportion of commercial space on the first floor. Because the development of this area has not yet complete, many commercial stores are idle and waiting for sales or leasing. For other non-residential buildings, the size and form are determined by their functions. By comparing commercial functions in this area, indicates that higher ranking commercial functions are separated from residential buildings. The width of road is also an important factor to explain the distribution of activities. Commercial activities in Nangangzi have generally distributed along the major roads which width more than 12 meters. Chang Rong Rd., with a width of 25 meters, is the most important road in Nangangzi, is the most concentrated and prosperous commercial are in Nangangzi. On the other hand, the roads with special location and conditions could have a concentrative tendency of special functions. There are several cases with special functions assembled can be observed in the study area. Comparing the commercial properties between Nangangzi and older traditional commercial streets surrounding it, indicates the commercial functions in Nangangzi is less developed. Especially the daily functions are significantly lower. It could be related to the population of consumers attracted by the outer commercial districts.
