The content analysis approach is well-established and acknowledged sociological research technique, although it is constantly evolving and its field of application is expanding. The aim of the article is to demonstrate the possibilities to use the content analysis method in urban studies. It includes the analysis of literature and the example of methodology design in the frame of case of the study of modernization of Lithuanian cities during the Soviet period. It can be concluded that the content analysis method is a flexible tool that can be integrated both with sociospatial (sociotope methodology) and spatial (Space Syntax, multimodal graph) research methods and reinforce social dimension in spatial analysis of cities.
