The modern pecularities of development and operations of the objects within the experimental area are analysed here. The factors of influence on the level and distribution of transformation processes pecularities of urban space within the experimental area are characterized. There are defined the research of space transformations as one of evaluation methods of estimation of social and economic conditions of people living in the article. The very people were concerned not as generator of these changes but as media which only change the environment in which they live and adopted. These conditions are: social, economic and natural. Mapping of these transformations as one of investigation methods (also using observation, questioning and oth.) have allowed more information about the subject of research; besides changing of representation information method supported of revealing of object geographical peculiarities, their factors and consequences. Also representation of results in view that are more convenient for perception is need to creating of theoretical statements which have helped to understanding of social and geographical processes. The common transformation features of urban space within the experimental area of the city of Lutsk are highlighted. The results of sociological research on transformation of urban space are analysed as well. The areas with different types of transformation processes within the experimental area are identified here. It is done using the historical, map, sociological research methods. Based on the historical and cartographic analysis we watched some processes of transformation of urban space within the test area of the city of Lutsk: facilities services and trading concentrates along of residential buildings within the territory of the main streets (Freedom Avenue and street of Vinnichenko); commercially important area changes to living zone; the city borders grow and building-up is sealed. However, respondents believe that in the future with the cultural function and expansion of rest zones should strengthen the housing function of area. Percentage of disaffected of urban space changes is only 10%. We can see that people of Lutsk city are conscious citizens and in case for violation of their rights under the transformation of urban space will take appropriate action. So the city is undergoing of functional changes of urban space characteristic of post-Soviet time cities.
