Abstract: Urban parks size, spatial distribution and endowments represent essential indicators used for measuring the sustainability of urban environments and the quality of life in residential spaces. The paper assesses the deficit of urban parks in Bucharest by delimitating categories of residential spaces according to their accessibility to the city parks. We have set categories of residential spaces with poor access to urban parks and considered them to be priority intervention areas for urban rehabilitation in this aspect. Deficient access to Bucharest urban parks was correlated with development of new residential areas, as these tend to further increase the high density of built space and consequent traffic congestion. Identifying critical areas that lack good access to urban parks allows city public authorities to draw adequate measures to improve or to avoid worsening of the situation in a city with numerous environmental issues and an unpredictable future evolution!
