Indication of urban sprawl at the center of urban growth are characterized by strip development of residential-commercial zoning changes uncontrollably. One of the strip developments that took place in the city of Medan was Dr. Mansur street corridor. Changes in residential allocation functions become uncontrolled commercial places because of the dynamics of community activities and become a development degradation that requires efforts to revitalize the area. By uncovering the potential of urban square forming with direct observation in the field of social activities that take place in shared public spaces in this corridor, research raises the local wisdom of community behavior and potential places of interest that are bottom up development. The finding this research is the identification mapping of revitalization elements in the form of urban square (place and activity) for the complimentary of generic and organic revitalization models, which can later become a guide for the community and government in addressing changes from and by the community so that the negative strip development indication can be controlled.
