High population growth due to urbanization has led to the emergence of many densely populated and uninhabitable settlements in Jakarta. Jakarta has 445 RWs which are categorized as unfit for habitation, one of which is the Penjaringan sub-district, and the government will organize it. The purpose of this study is to determine the physical condition of the settlement environment in Penjaringan and the design solutions needed. The method used in this study is descriptive-qualitative method. The results of the study show that the Penjaringan area requires redevelopment in a portion of the planning area using 8 design criteria, namely land use, architectural character, landscaping, circulation and parking, property maintenance, signage, site furnishings, and lighting and utilities.
