Urban Renewal in Hasanpaşa

Urban Renewal in Hasanpaşa

Hasanpaşa sits close to central Kadıköy and has a mixture of residential buildings, ground-floor shops and commercial premises. Urban renewal here therefore needs to consider the different uses within a building as well as the legal and technical possibilities of the plot.

A redevelopment decision should be based on the existing ownership arrangements, plot conditions, proposed unit allocation and realistic contractor offers, rather than a general neighbourhood formula.

Understand the Existing Building and Its Plot

Start with the Building as It Stands Today

Review the number and type of independent units, title deeds, ownership shares, building condition and existing floor arrangements.

If a building includes homes above shops or other commercial spaces, that composition must be clear from the beginning of the project.

What Happens to Ground-Floor Shops?

Existing shop owners may have different requirements from residents. When a new building is proposed, commercial frontage, position, access, permitted use and the allocation of replacement commercial units need specific consideration.

Do not assume that a former street-level shop will automatically be replaced by an equivalent space without examining the designs and agreements.

The Plot Can Shape the Building's Use

Plot size, shape, location, street access and planning permissions affect whether and how residential and commercial spaces can be arranged.

A ground-floor commercial layout can also influence the position of entrances, parking access and shared facilities. Every design should be checked against current planning rules.

How Is Building Safety Evaluated?

The earthquake safety of the existing building requires appropriate technical assessment. An official at-risk building designation is a legally regulated process conducted by authorised organisations; it should not be confused with an informal inspection.

Planning the New Development and Selecting a Contractor

How Should the New Units Be Allocated?

Owners need to understand which residential or commercial unit they will receive, its floor, size, position, orientation and permitted use.

Where the previous building mixed shops and homes, the allocation should be especially clear in the architectural plans and contractual documents.

Do Not Judge Offers Solely by the Allocation Percentage

The land-share ratio offered by a contractor is only one measure. Consider the net area and use of the units, ground-floor design, parking, common facilities, technical standard, potential owner payments, construction schedule and safeguards.

A proposal may offer an attractive percentage but a less useful distribution of replacement units. Owners need a consistent comparison across all proposals.

Prepare the Architecture and Agreement Together

The proposed commercial and residential areas should be reflected consistently in the plans, technical specifications and contract.

Agreements should address unit characteristics, delivery dates, payment obligations, guarantees and what happens if the contractor does not meet the agreed timetable. Legal points should be reviewed by the relevant specialists.
