Abstract: Today, the streets play a very important role as the most important element of citizens’ perceptions. Meanwhile, the urban edges will play an important role in the minds of citizens according to Kevin Lynch idea. Therefore, if the urban space simultaneously has the identity of street and edge, it becomes a very important element in the city. This element, more than mere street or urban edge, can help to strengthen citizens’ sense of belonging to the city. Such a personality space has a difference from street and edge, but at the same time, it is a set of characteristics of both. This new identity will have a unique meaning in the minds of citizens that it leads to pay attention and strength the identity in the direction of meaning to the city. Therefore, the subject of this article is the recognition and introduction of street landscape that is also the mind edge. This organic street is located in the historic city of Aran & Bidgol (a city near Kashan) in Iran country. Aran & Bidgol has been created from the combination of the two old towns “Aran” and “Bidgol”. In fact, the desired street is a two-sided edge. “Aran edge and Bidgol edge” have been gathered in a unique identity called Street. This street, on the one hand, in the mental aspect of the people of these two cities, separates “Aran” and “Bidgol”, and on the other hand, is the link between the two cities. That is, this street is a combination of two identities, Aran Identity and Bidgol Identity in addition to having an independent identity.
