| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 都市計劃研究所 === 105 === In order to make Taipei City a part of creative cities, Department of Cultural Affairs propose policies
of cultural creative clusters. It aims at combining major cultural and creative projects and creative
districts with an attempt to drive cultural and creative industry as well as creative atmosphere in the city.
Songshan Cultural and Creative Park is an urban regeneration project which is famous and
culture-and-creative oriented. It is also a major cultural and creative project of Department of Cultural
Affairs. Yet, its plans and combination, along with recent Wen-Qing trend in Taiwan, make positive and
negative impacts on spaces, economic developments, and environments of neighborhood: Shinren
Village/Lane 553.
As mentioned above, the thesis examines relationships among Shinren Village/Lane 553, Songshan
Cultural and Creative Park, and Wen-Qing Phenomenon and brings the following questions: 1) What kind
of impacts does Songshan Cultural and Creative Park make on community developments? How do
neighbors value Songshan Cultural and Creative Park and community developments? 2) What brings
shops and creative workers in Shinren Village/Lane 553? What kind of management challenges do they
face? 3) What kind of developmental opportunities and crises do Wen-Qing Phenomenon bring for Lane
553? Does gentrification gradually appear in the process?
The thesis uses qualitative research methods to conduct case studies, including field observations
and interviews, textual analysis, and streetscape comparison. The results are: 1) As powerful authorities,
Taipei City Government and the media overuse Wen-Qing trend to build authenticity of Wen-Qing
Phenomenon which leads to challenges and criticism. 2) Songshan Cultural and Creative Park brings
opportunities of redevelopment for its neighborhood but at the same time makes negative impacts on
quality of living environments. The impacts include conflicts among neighbors and conflicts between
neighbors and shops. 3) Streetscapes in Lane 553 change dramatically. Entrepreneurs and creative
workers choose to leave due to authenticity blast and rising rents caused by gentrification.
