History of The Formation of an Urban Street Under the Effect of Social-Political Events: Voyvoda and Okcu Musa Streets

Abstract

This research seeks to reveal the effects of social, political, and even legal sources on the formation of urban streets. For this purpose, the impact on the historical Voyvoda and Okçu Musa Streets in Istanbul is examined. Although the original character of these streets has been preserved to some extent, their texture, functions, and architectural façades have undergone changes. The research aims to analyze how socio-political transformations and regulatory frameworks have influenced the evolution of the physical and functional features of these historical streets over time. The scope encompasses the period from the 19th century to the present, examining the interplay between urban development, architectural identity, and broader societal shifts. A comprehensive literature review, analysis of historical maps, and on-site observations were used as research methods. The findings reveal that the legal and social transformations from the 19th century to the present have affected the architectural texture of these streets. The study concludes that understanding the historical layering of urban spaces through socio-political and legal lenses is essential for developing preservation strategies that honor Istanbul's rich cultural heritage while accommodating contemporary urban needs.
