Abstract

City planners are faced with challenges of creating. outdoor environments as collective unifying frame work for new development. The usual process of urban development treats buildings as isolated objects sited in the landscape not as part of the larger fabric of the city.
Each element is the responsibility of a different public or private organization and unity of the total environment is lost. Various development projects as in the case of Tahrer Square (TS) are by and large put together separately with out on overriding plan for public space. The result is ill-defined spaces or to say lost spaces. These spaces are patchwork quilt of private buildings and public spaces usually severed from a historical context.
To shed light upon the problem of lost space , this paper takes  (TS) in Sana'a city as a Case study . it investigates (TS) urban development phases . it also presents ( TS ) existing physical setting. The utility of the study lies study lies in the formulation of revitalization policy for the urban historical centers
