SPATIAL SEGREGATION AND FACADE MAINTENANCE ALONG THE MUSI RIVER CORRIDOR ON DEPATEN BARU STREET
Keywords:
facade, maintenance, riverfront, space syntax, street corridorAbstract
Riverfront areas in many cities in Indonesia have been developing based on water transportation activities that shape urban spatial patterns and activities. The development of land transportation modes has shifted the role of rivers as the main transportation routes of cities, causing riverfront areas such as Depaten Baru street to experience a decline in activity and building facade maintenance. This study aims to analyze how changes in urban spatial configuration due to the shift from water transportation to land transportation influence the level of spatial segregation and building facade maintenance along Depaten Baru street in Palembang. This study employed a descriptive quantitative approach using space syntax through DepthMapX analysis. Spatial configuration was examined using the 1945 and 2025 maps of Palembang City, while facade maintenance conditions were identified through field observation of 62 buildings along Depaten Baru street. The results indicate that integration and visibility values decreased, while Relative Asymmetry (RRA) increased, showing a higher level of spatial segregation within the corridor. Although most building facades remain in adequate condition, many exhibit physical deterioration such as faded paint, mold growth and weathering. These findings indicate that changes in spatial configuration affect activity intensity and indirectly influence building façade maintenance condition.
