After the 18th Century, Ayvalık has become an important industrial city and it preserved this feature for a long time. The city was originally established and occupied by the Ottoman Rums who are known as Anatolian Greeks. After the population exchange resulting from Treaty of Lausanne in 1923, the Ayvalık’s dwelling, settlement, production and industrial characteristics were used, protected and maintained by Turkish immigrants came from Thesselonike, Mytilene, and Crete. Parmak Çeşme Square, subject of the thesis, is located at the south periphery of Ayvalık and takes the name of the fountain that is situated in the square. The square is in the traditional residential area, with the example of modest traditional houses in Ayvalık and new buildings in harmony. The problem is that the Parmak Çeşme Square although a valuable open space, is not actively used anymore by even residents in the neighborhood. The aim of the thesis is to understand and evaluate Parmak Çeşme Square and to prepare a rehabilitation project for Parmak Çeşme Square and its near surrounding. This thesis is developed in two scales which are main study area and near surrounding area of main study area. Firstly, the typical characteristics of the near surrounding area is understood and the relation between the square and Ayvalık is assessed. Secondly, in the main study area, the more detailed analysis are made there depending on the site’s values, potentials and problems, the intervention decisions are determined and a rehabilitation project for Parmak Çeşme Square and its near surrounding is prepared aiming to solve its functional problem which is an important public gathering place both for the inhabitants and children of the neighbourhood.

Conservation and re-adaptation of industrial heritage has been a quite important aspect in the sense of continuity of the historic industrial character of the place for future generations. Industrial buildings usually lost their functions due to the fast technological developments and changing within production/consumption systems. This inevitable functional loss caused the obsolete structures which are regarded as industrial heritage. It is essential to conserve and recover the post-industrial landscapes t...
Handling Sub-Soil Urban Archaeological Resources In Urban Planning, Issues In İzmir Historic City Centre
Belge, Burak (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2012-12-1)
In Turkey, although most of the historic city centres have been continuously occupied since early ages, urban archaeological resources –cultural deposits underneath modern cities- could not be handled into planning process. It will be possible to strike the right balance provided that the archaeological resources are evaluated and considered in each stage of the planning and development process. At that point, urban archaeology is considered as an interdisciplinary field of study that evaluates the cultural...

Rangraz, Sina; Barlas, Mehmet Adnan; Urban Design in City and Regional Planning Department (2018)

However, this turn within the profession pertained to a degree of confusion when it comes to the rhetoric of placelessness and the associated place-making agenda. By not being exactly in opposition with that endeavor, this thesis attempts to suggest an alternative understanding of place through the concept of “unfinishedness of p...

Therefore, the buildings, architectural culture, and symbols of this era are under risk. Moreover, the conse...
