Revitalizing a Historical Corridor to Sustain Architectural and Cultural Heritage; A GIS Based Case Study in Alsancak İzmir

Abstract

History, culture and ecology are important values which constitutes unique identity of the cities. In this context, it is crucial to sustain, protect and respect heritage values for the future generations. This values also create personal attachment to the place for the urbanites. The aim of this research is to collecting data of architectural heritage through the 1469th Street to conserve and revitalize the historical corridor from the Historical Alsancak Station to the waterfront promenade Kordon using Geographic Information System. The research area is located in Alsancak district, İzmir Turkey. Data collection was conducted from the research field scoring for each building based on Newman’s Model for conservation degree of historical values of each building. The variables of the model evaluating structures were; time frame of construction, land use change, architectural modification, and building condition. When categorizing structures the total score of each one offered the degree of historical value protection. To assess the density of historical potential of the 1469. Street Hot Spot Analysis, Inverse Distance Weighted Interpolation, and Weighted Sum Analysis were implemented. 25 percent of the Street has been protected historical value, while almost 42 percent of the area was evaluated as a loss of history. In the final, suggestions were placed to offer new usage strategies for the future adaptive reuse possibilities and renovation interventions to revitalize the street and create a historic cultural corridor from Alsancak Station to Kordon.
