Visual preferences for outdoor space along commercial pedestrian streets under the influence of plant characteristics.

ABSTRACT: Chinese commercial pedestrian streets have developed rapidly in recent years. However, people's preferences were not sufficiently considered and reflected in the outdoor space and landscape design. With the outdoor landscapes along commercial pedestrian streets in the region south of the Five Ridges as the research objects, this study revealed the public's different preference evaluations of the landscapes under the reciprocal effects of street characteristics. The main results were as follows: (a) When arcade spaces were available, people prefer streets with taller trees and a lower planting density (50 plants/km or less). Conversely, they preferred streets with relatively low trees (3-6 m), a higher planting density (100-200 plants/km) and two or more vertical layers of plants. People di
