The Evaluation of Active Green Sites For Recreation: Bor Case

Year 2017, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 44 - 51, 30.08.2017

Abstract

Bor is a central district located
in the southeast part of the Central Anatolia Region, within the boundaries of
Nigde and surrounded by Aladaglar in the east and Hasan and Melendiz mountains
in the north. After the population increased in Bor with the passing of the
Ankara-Kayseri and Adana-Konya railways in 1932, the need for green spaces
increased due to the effect of construction. In the process, providing livable
spaces to communities has become an important issue in environments that are
shaped by the combination of natural and cultural objects. In this declaration,
the amounts of green areas in the Bor district will be determined; the
distribution of the active green areas in the neighborhood scale, the size and
the per capita rates will be evaluated within the scope of the "Regulation
on the Construction of Spatial Plans" dated 14.06.2014 and numbered 29030
Official Newspaper; recreational usage of available green areas will be
discussed and alternative green areas will be proposed which provide effective
use to the people of the region.
