Abstract Urban squares of Iran have undergone various structural changes from tradition to modernity. These changes have influenced socio-cultural life of urbanites in various dimentions. It is vital to identify the structural features of urban squares in order to manage and implement constructive solutions. The present research investigates the structural changes of urban cities. In order to accomplish this goal, four squares of Tehran city, namely Imam Khomeini, Baharestan, Enghelab, and Azadi Squares are selected as samples for case study. The research methodology is historical-analytic, and documents and field observations were the two data collection methods used. For such a purpose, the structural features and indexes of the square were extracted from different sources and described and analyzed in the four targeted squares. The results show differences in structure between Imam Khomeini and Baharestan squares, which were built during Ghajar rein, on the one hand, and that of Enghelab and Azadi squares, which were built in Pahlavi 1st and 2nd reigns respectively, on the other. The squares of Ghajar period have an amalgamation of traditional and modern elements within and in the body of the square. But the squares of Pahlavi period are far away from the structural features of traditional squares and, thus, are turned into modern squares. Such a trend also continued during the Islamic Republic
