This study examines local character by analyzing occurrence patterns of elements, including manifestations of daily activities, in roofed exterior spaces facing alleys. In the northern area, Type A (spaces with accumulated maintenance/management manifestations) and Type B (full-length roofs with a small number of mobility/transport manifestations) are relatively common, whereas in the southern area Type D (eave spaces with few manifestations) is more prevalent, showing a shift across the main road. Rather than the plan making particular blocks distinctive, multiple patterns coexist across Komagabayashi-cho.
