Streets are a major element of the built urban environment. They define the circulation pattern and the geometrical configuration of the city. They are often the beginning of neighbourhood interaction connecting individual dwelling units and serving as a `stage' where people interact with bits of the total built environment. This paper analytically examines the state of the urban streetscapes of Abeokuta, Ogun State with the aim of identifying the poverty-environment nexus (as well as other dynamic factors) that precipitates their present condition and suggest solutions to their improvement.
