In the last few decades, the deterioration of the inner city and increase in population have resulted in urban decay within the city urban fabric which thereby high income citizens abandoned their houses demanding a better quality of life outside the city fabric; thereby leading the old city to be occupied by poorer households or left vacant. Urban decay is linked to suburban sprawl as the economic life is pulled out of the city, instead of a previously developed urban sites within the old city fabric. Infill development is the intervention development within vacant, abandoned, passed over or underutilized within built-up areas of existing communities in which infrastructure is already in place. It is a solution to reutilize lost spaces in existing communities and playing a critical role in achieving community revitalization, land conservation and alternatives to sprawl development. Infill development is a solution to enhance the character, viability and function of the old city aiming to increase walkability by contributing safe and attractive pedestrian environment; thereby creating new opportunities for mixed-use that recapture the sense of place which is considerably missing in urban communities. Containing far more details, this study articulates the potential and limits of infill development and its related guideline to address scattered model of urbanization, segregation and environmental pollution.

Comparative Approaches to Gentrification: A Research Framework
Lagendijk, Arnoud; van Melik, Rianne; de Haan, Freek; Ernste, Huib; Ploegmakers, Huub; Kayasü, Serap (Wiley, 2014-07-01)
Comparative research on gentrification is on the rise, especially since gentrification is no longer confined to historical, central neighbourhoods in First World countries, but also appeared in rural, new-built areas and Second World countries. In this paper we present our comparative approach to investigate gentrification processes in four European cities (Arnhem, Istanbul, Vienna, Zurich), which differs from previous studies in its use of assemblage theory as research framework. The multi-layered framewor...
Displacement and asset transformation from inner-city squatter settlement into peripheral mass housing
Borsuk, Imren; Eroglu, Ensari (SAGE Publications, 2020-04-01)
While slum clearance projects in the Global South have displaced a large number of urban poor from the inner city to peripheral areas, peripheral mass housing estates have been developed as a spatial fix to improve the livelihood of the urban poor through slum development projects. Shifting the focus of displacement and poverty studies on changing assets and social experiences of displacement, this study makes an empirical contribution to the literature with a case study from Turkey. It demonstrates that ma...
Functional decline in the case of Salıpazarı, Istanbul
Eslami Taheri, Aslan; Uzun, Cemile Nil; Urban Design in City and Regional Planning Department (2013)
Urban decline is one of the most important factors dealing with the creation of urban ills and formation of slums in the city centers. This study investigates the roots of urban decline in urban areas. In order to do so, symptoms, types, causes and participant factors dealing with the process of urban decline are investigated. Also functional decline, as one of the most important triggers of urban decline, is introduced and its force that results in low quality of urban places is explored. The scale of part...
ANALYZING THERMAL COMFORT OF TRANSITIONAL SPACES THROUGH CLIMATE-RESPONSIVE DESIGN SOLUTIONS
Ulu, Ümmühan Nur; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Department of Architecture (2023-1-16)
Amount of green spaces in the cities has gradually decreased and left its place to rapid construction as a result of the rapid increase in population and urbanization, causing the temperature difference between the city and the rural area to increase, resulting in the formation of Urban Heat Island (UHI) in cities. The necessity to create comfortable areas in dense cities increases the intensity of energy usage, requiring multi-layered studies to mitigate the urban heat island effect by developing climate-r...
Intervening to urban decline by urban design tools in divided cities: Lefkoşa
Özdemir, Sıla; Yetişkul Şenbil, Emine; Department of City and Regional Planning (2014)
Urban decline in walled cities has been condemned to be a significant phenomenon in different fields as political economy, urban design, city planning and urban sociology. The aim of the study is to determine the association between physical urban space and social urban space in declined walled cities and handle the fact of urban decline in a two dimensional point of view by examining both the social space and physical space as well as the part and the whole in an integrated approach. The integration of soc...
