SPATIAL DELIMITATION
Further analysis is done on spatial delimitation to reveal types of borders forming space on the site. Developed classification defines two groups: borders that cannot be crossed by observer( no physical connection, no visual connection and no physical connection, visual connection) and those that could be crossed but still act as a border in the city( metaphorical border with visual connection, physical connection and weird path when final destination is not clear for observer, the space is disoriented).
It is worth to emphasize that in case the first group of strong borders disappear it is important how second group form types of spaces in between and relate to them and what kind of the city image is formed. The more borders, even though they can be crossed, present in one space the less structured and clear the space is for observers.
