This study focuses on the town center transformation after the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster, focusing on the reconstruction of buildings and the transformation of vacant lots after the demolition of buildings. Three factors influenced the spatial transformation of vacant lots after the disaster: the degree to which the residential population had recovered, the characteristics of residents and the associated types of reconstructed buildings, and the way vacant lots connected to buildings were utilized. In these areas, rather than a uniform approach, it is necessary to consider methods of utilization that are adapted to each vacant lot, based on the circumstances of each area.
