Abstract
Neighborhoods have historically been the social habitat of city dwellers. This social unit, which was considered as a cornerstone of Iranian-Islamic society, has demonstrated the structure of ancient Iranian cities in a distinctive way. Various political, administrative, economic, and socio-cultural factors have led to the formation of the neighborhood's physical space in the city, of which social and cultural factors are of particular importance. Today, due to some shortcomings in providing services, some of the historic and old neighborhoods of cities have been intervened by urban management. If these interventions are carried out without considering the memories and affiliations of citizens and their mental needs, it will lead to rapid developments in historical fabrics and the erasure of the identity of cities. One of the platforms for changing the shape of these neighborhoods is urban development plans. This study aims to evaluate the changes in the identity and physical characteristics of Sarshoor neighborhood based on comprehensive and detailed plans and focuses on the changes in the characteristics of the neighborhood. This study is practical in terms of purpose and qualitative in nature based on thematic analysis. The strategy used in this research is inductive. The data collection method is both library-based and field-based. The findings of this study indicate that with the interventions of urban development plans in different years, the residential, tourist, and market characteristics of this neighborhood have changed and have gone out of balance. The residential characteristic of the neighborhood has been severely weakened due to the departure of native people from the neighborhood, the decrease in the sense of belonging, the increase in land and goods prices, heavy traffic, and the increase in residential users.

Abstract
Urban historical textures are symbols of originality and identity in our city, and have high values. These structures, as architectural and urban heritage, have been inherited from our predecessors for us as a memory. Our responsibility towards this precious heritage is to understand its underlying values, and to preserve and promote it. But as it should be, the values of these textures do not have a proper place in the study process of urban development plans. With the arrival of modernism in Iran and the imposition of a new spatial arrangement resulting from it on the historical contexts of old cities, responding to the social and cultural needs of the residents has been forgotten. The multiplicity of procedures and their sectional nature and the impact of relevant policies from sectional decisions without philosophical and theoretical support is the bottleneck that developing countries are currently facing. Therefore; urban heritage cannot be imagined as a isolated phenomenon, an enclosed area that is protected from the external forces of change due to plans and regulations. The work process was such that first the values of architectural heritage and urban planning were introduced and a category that could be extracted from it was presented, and then a comparative study of the realization of these values was carried out in the description of study services of comprehensive and detailed plans, description of special and non-homogeneous services, and in the next step with the application of pathology, the reasons for its non-fulfillment have been studied in these plans. In this regard, in order to carefully examine the issue of the development plans of several cities in the northwestern region of the country, it has been studied. The results of the research show that urban development plans, as the most important urban planning documents in the field of paying attention to the values of architectural heritage and urban development and its application in order to protect this heritage, have performed poorly and the right place has not been considered for it. In this regard, the special plans for the protection and revival of the historical area have been successful in paying attention to the many values of the historical contexts and have covered many existing gaps, but they still have disadvantages. In the following, based on the results, solutions are proposed with the aim of eliminating this shortcoming and the appropriate calculation and application of values in urban development plans, so that the study, review and presentation of a suitable plan in an integrated manner for the whole city in terms of the differences and unique characteristics of each part of the city can be a lot to resolve urban heritage issues.
