Abstract

After the 70th decade, a severe reactions  were started against  the  uncontrolled growth and expansion of the cities   after the  2d world war, and endogenous development strategy was offered for tackling with the problem. In this case, infill development -which is one of the smart growth subsidiaries-, is the simplest strategy for realizing endogenous development. This research has analytical-descriptive Method and is based on study of theoretical and practical literature of mentioned concepts. In this paper, first, a brief definition of endogenous development and infill development and their relations will be presented as a preface. In continue, the theoretical backgrounds shaped and developed the concept of infill development will be discussed shortly. These backgrounds are sustainable development, new urbanism and smart growth. In this part it will be tried to describe the relationship between infill development and each of these movements. In the third and main part of the paper, while reviewing the general process of infill development, the key procedural concepts (partnership, capacity assessment and fazing) will be explained and then described by some short case studies. As a conclusion, this paper offers two basic principles which are dominant over the procedure in infill development and form the different stages of infill process. These two are: “improvement” and “contextualize”.
