As a result of physical, social and economic needs, the demand for tall buildings is increasing worldwide. Due to their great size and large impacts on the historical urban environment, tall buildings, through careful design and urban integration, have the potential to improve the quality around them while adding a new value of design with preserving the existing urban heritage. Also, depending on their large area of influence, design considerations regarding sustainability and environmental integration of tall buildings need to be handled with more care than with other conventional buildings to provide the most positive impact on the existing built environment. Moreover, tall buildings can create both negative and positive impacts on the urban environment both physically and socially; they should be designed with a consideration on basic parameters that satisfy both the structural requirements and ideally the requirements of the sustainable built environment. The harmony between a tall building and its environment is the most important point which should be handled together. Researches made in the field of tall buildings and their sustainable capabilities determine important design issues in different levels from urban to architectural scale. Location, site organization, transportation, urban skyline, material selection and façade design, entrance floor design, vertical design and the urban microclimate may be listed as of the fundamental concepts that should be taken into consideration in order to define the boundaries and intersection points of a tall building with the existing urban context. Thus, the most important and robust aim of a tall building design should be; minimizing the damage on existing built environment and historical urban heritage while expanding the usable landscape which is provided by its physical footprint on the site. An observation platform is introduced for this study the main aim is to compare in order to compare tall buildings with each other and reveal out their urban environmental impacts. Finding more relevant key sustainability concepts may further help to develop this method for observing and understanding these impacts. By developing this observational platform, it may be possible to provide a universal and whole concept design tool for buildings and their surrounding nature for further studies.

The Integration of Tall Buildings in Urban Environment: Considering the Key Sustainability Concepts
Tohumcu, Tulû; Çakmaklı, Ayşem Berrin (2017-6-15)
As a result of physical, social and economic needs, demand for tall buildings is increasing worldwide. Due to their great size and large impacts on urban environment, tall buildings, , have the potential to improve the quality around them through careful design and urban integration. When compared with lower buildings, tall buildings can be more challenging by means of architectural design and engineering details. Also, depending on their large area of influence, design considerations regarding sustainabili...

An inquiry into different urban transformation models in the context of rent and property transfer: the case of Ankara-Mamak district
Yılmaz, Mahir; Ersoy, Melih; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2011)
The transformation of urban space is determined by the social and economic relations in every mode of production. Under the condition of capitalist accumulation, the transformation of squatter areas is a significant debate. Therefore, the transformation of squatter areas should be analyzed in respect to the rent and the rent distribution by considering structure and agency relationship. In order to understand the rent distribution, political interest groups and capitalist power holders should be scrutinized...
A Sustainable approach to urban regeneration process by SWOT analysis
Cin, Mehmet Melih (2016-01-01)
Inner city deprived areas are valuable lands which have economical and social problems in addition to its physical conditions. Therefore, Turkey introduced interventions to these urban areas in order to improve the physical, social and economical conditions. However, interventions cause more problems rather than solving the existent ones such as; gentrifications, unemployment of inhabitant, loss of social and urban tissue. Problems consist of undetermined conditions of areas before or during implementation ...
Regenerating cultural quarters in Pakistan: The case study of Lahore
Riaz, Harmain; Akkar Ercan, Zübeyde Müge; Urban Design in City and Regional Planning Department (2022-8-12)
The cities across the world face a constant problem of depletion every passing day, often caused by several factors, including environmental degradation, migration and population rise, deteriorating infrastructure, lack of resources or economic and social changes, striking at different magnitudes. These problems, if addressed properly through planned schemes could result in saving tons of financial and building resources for the municipalities directing the cities. New and modern cities are now being critic...
