Master Thesis The Regeneration of City Centers a Design Strategy for Alsancak District Izmir(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2001) Ergenekon, Timur; Gençel, Ziya; Gençel, Ziya; 02.03. Department of City and Regional Planning; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe aim of this thesis is to understand urban regeneration issues, a new concept in Turkish planning literature, by means of investigating changes and transformation processes realized in urban centers and to propose a design strategy for a region of the Alsancak District, Izmir, from economical, social, cultural, technological as well as spatial points of view. Ever since the emergence of urban life, cities have been subjected to changes and transformations. Particularly in the last decades, the cities as increasingly becoming parts of the changing world system have been not only forced to exceed their boundaries by the effects of developments in information and communication technologies but also faced globalization phenomenon. Consequently, they have to attract national and international investments by means of regenerating their deteriorated and decayed sites in order to gain the p0sition of world cities in this competitive process. For this purpose, the city ofIzmir ought to have a place and gain a new vision for the future. Alsancak District was therefore considered as the most proper area of the city in order to realize this objectives. Because this area tends to lose its eCbnomicaland physical function due to the removing of the port, and then face to the spatial and functional transformations. Within this general frame, the subjects in the parts of the study were outlined as follows: In the introduction, the urban regeneration concept was defined and the problem, aims, methodology, and organization of the study were clarified. In the second chapter, dynamics, and process behind urban regeneration issues, which have been gained a growing importance in the recent years were then examined. In the third chapter, operational aspects of the subject were studied and the general framework of the urban regeneration issues was determined. In the fourth chapter, the city center concept and its transformation process were taken into account. Chapter 5 then included regeneration projects applied in the developed and developing countries. Chapter 6 evaluated the planning approaches and interventions, considering the urban problems, and potentials, and establishing relations with the urban regeneration issues. In the seventh chapter, a design and development strategy for the Alsancak District was proposed in the direction of gained experiences from the exemplified projects. In the conclusion, a general evaluation was made discussing the whole conceptual, pragmatic and legal aspects of the subjects with the general planning and development strategies and the proposal organizational principles of the case study.Master Thesis Urban Regeneration Policy Impacts on the Future of City-A Comparative Study in European and the Turkish Context(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Binay, Recep Anıl; Serim, Muharrem Erkal; Serim, Muharrem Erkal; 02.03. Department of City and Regional Planning; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe aim of this thesis is to not only understand urban regeneration issues, but also to examine European and Turkish urban regeneration examples with making comparative study between them to present necessity and importance of urban regeneration for the future of cities. Cities, which have been result of the social, economical, physical and cultural interaction, have developed urban policies for urban areas where have experienced rapid change and transformations not only to keep step with this transformation and solve urban problems revealed after these changes but also to provide new urban requirements of people.

Objectives of urban regeneration issue have been presented in terms of social, economical, physical and cultural. Urban regeneration process, strategy and policy in five different European countries have been described. Urban regeneration examples in these countries have been examined evaluated, specified according to characteristic features. Evolution of urban regeneration in Turkey has been stated with motives behind and then some urban regeneration examples have been examined. As a consequence, comparative study between Europe and Turkey has been made in respect of motives, objectives and results. Importance and necessity of urban regeneration projects for future of the city has been presented.
