It is assumed that the park green space between the two lines of discontinuous levees, so called “Kasumi-tei”, creates a spatial continuity between the town and the river. In the previous report, a field survey was conducted on visibility and accessibility of the river from the town, but no clear features were observed, rather the presence of topography, trees, neighboring lands and buildings were confirmed to reduce these features. On the other hand, a new challenge emerged to focus on space and landscape formed by the two lines of levees and the gap between. In order to verify the issue, this paper reports the results of a field survey of three cases along the Shigenobu River. The results are as follows. 1) The same was confirmed as previously reported about the factors that reduced the visibility and the accessibility of the river from the town. 2) The spatial characteristics of enclosure by the levees and the appearance of the edge of the levees were newly identified.
