| '''Mecidiyeköy'''
| |
|
| |
| Mecidiyeköy is an area which has been effected severely by the increase in motorized traffic and the shrinkage of open spaces. The construction of the first ring road and the development of the Büyükdere Cadessi into a main traffic artery with the construction of the Tarlabaşı Boulevard have turned Mecidiyeköy into a transit area. Due to the impossible infrastructural situation and high density public buildings and sportsfacilities have gradually disappeared from the area. For instance does Mecidiyeköy not facilitate the renovation of the the Galatasaray stadium, 'Ali Sami Yen' for the benefit of accommodating more visitors. In the year 2010 it will be destroyed and rebuild in a different spot. Before the construction of the highway the face of the district of Şişli to which Mecidiyköy belongs used to be dominated by walkable spaces and a high number of plane trees, most of which were planted in a row on the middle strip of the Büyükdere axis, a street that was planned under republican order as a green boulevard, lined by city apartments to house the republican bourgeoisie. The most popular of these normally 3 to 4 story high apartment houses, the house of Mustafa Kemal is still remaining and has been turned into a museum.
