Le-Mirail had been built from 1964 to 1972 according to the modern urbanism to accept population growth of Toulouse with industrialization. But from the 1980s, it was occupied by many poor immigrants and became problem estate in which crimes occur frequently. There were social uniformity of the poor, and specific background of huge architectural town structure. To improve this situation, specific and social renovations are being made by “Grand Projet de Ville”. The same had occurred in Bijlmermeer. Huge housing blocks and vast open-spaces or large parking buildings were demolished or renovated. It should be suggested that huge architectural town structure is difficult to correspond with changes in circumstances. In my opinion so as to correspond to changes in the particular situation, there will be needs for some flexible architectural and administrative and also legal systems to convert buildings and their contents. We should reconsider the planning theory.
