Research on Urban Identity: Example of Beşiktaş Pier Square
Öz
The quality and quantity of urban areas in developed countries are accepted as an indicator of civilization and quality of life. Therefore, today the concept of “quality and identity in the urban area" has become an issue that needs to be focused on in a vital way. The squares, the most dynamic areas of life, which reveal the quality and identity of the cities, have changed spatially from past to present. In this study, Beşiktaş Pier Square and its surroundings, one of the most important locations in İstanbul, were chosen as the study areas to find out quality and identity of the squares, which have such an impact on the city itself and the physical analysis of the area was carried out and its identity card was created. Within the scope of long-term observations made in the area at different times, suggestions that would contribute to the space identity were presented examining how the study area is used. Spatial quality parameters for the research area were determined and area detections were made in line with the determined parameters. A "Diagram" was created by drawing attention to 4 important features, "Accessibility and Linked", "Activities and Usage", "Confort and Image" and "Sociability". In system, criteria are scored with 4 different values between -2- and +2. In consideration of the information presented in the "Spatial quality parameter, positive and negative factors were tried to be determined in the area giving "+2, +1, -1, -2" values to the determined concrete quality measurement indicators. The connection between the quality of the square and its surroundings and spatial activities has been tried to be examined both in terms of history and as a transportation-transfer center. Suggestions have been made for the strengthening and sustainability of the urban identity.
