This Paper clarifies the possibility that community organization manages public space instead of public sector analyzing the factors that community organization such as Shinmachi, Nabari City can create and manage community common space by working Nabari River improvement in partnership with governments. In conclusion, we can find four factors as follows: First community organization is operated democratically. Secondly it can unify neighborhood opinions and reflect them to public works. Thirdly it persuades people by itself and co-creates public space by donating some lands of roadside sites. Finally it makes confidential relationship with governments to co-manege public space with public-private partnership.
