description As part of a sustainable urban development strategy, Algeria has adopted the model of new cities to relieve pressure on its metropolises and large cities. The new city of Sidi Abdallah is one of these new cities, located 30 kilometres from Algiers. This paper aims to determine the extent to which new cities contribute to development by diagnosing and comparing the development status of the new city of Sidi Abdallah and the state of Algeria using CASBEE (Comprehensive Assessment System for the Built Environment Efficiency) tools. This is based on evaluating new cities by measuring their performance, level of sustainability, and impact on the development of the mother city or region. The study concluded that the development of the new city of Sidi Abdallah according to urban sustainability criteria is a prerequisite for contributing to the establishment and management of sustainable urban development, both within the city itself and in the surrounding areas. It was also found that the CASBEE tool has the potential to achieve sustainable development, especially if it is improved by adding more indicators focusing on the economic and social dimensions of sustainability in the local context of the city.
