Cities, which are living mechanisms, are in continuous transformation and development process. They expand physically, increase their population, and undergo changes over time while consuming their existing resources. One of the areas that had to change as a result of these urbanization processes is greyfields such as shopping centers, airports, and military areas that have lost their function. Airports, which entered our lives in the 20th century, are the areas that remained amid in intense urbanization in time, unable to expand their capacities due to the intense urbanization and forced to move to the edge of the cities. The transformation processes of these remaining areas are the subject of this study. Many airports in the world have been transformed in this way. Atatürk Airport in Istanbul is also about to change as one of the failed airports. The airport has begun a transformation process that is still in the project stage. Although two years have passed since the announcement of the project, no final decision has been made, and the project has not yet started. Airport land has been used for festivals, cargo, and private flights. Therefore, the examples from around the world that have undergone a successful transformation will be examined under the headings to be descriptive for the Atatürk Airport. The example transformations, which are generally transformed as green, residential and commercial areas, will be examined according to public participation, decision mechanisms, sustainability context, and architectural competition criteria within the scope of the study and will be compared with the transformation process of the Atatürk Airport. As a result of the study, Atatürk Airport has the potential of a successful transformation to a greenfield, if the decision-makers can lead the public and creative industries to contribute to the process of sustainable transformation. With this comparison study, it is aimed to shed light on the potential transformation process of the Atatürk Airport
