Senri New Town was constructed in Osaka, Japan beginning in 1958 to address a housing shortage after World War II. It is located 15 km north of Osaka City on former agricultural land. The town was designed based on the neighborhood unit theory, with district centers located near train stations providing shops, services, and parks accessible by foot. Infrastructure like rail lines connect the new town to Osaka City. Pedestrian walkways and a variety of public green spaces were incorporated throughout Senri New Town's residential neighborhoods.
