history & development

A brief history of Yenikapi

• 1,200 years ago and to the third century A.D ... Istanbul's name was not yet Constantinople; it was Byzantium. The city's major ports hosted ships carrying pottery and incense brought from the East and headed to other ports. The grain to be distributed to the city would also be unloaded here. That port is today's Yenikapi.

• The former ports on the Golden Horn side of the re-founded city turned insufficient for the marine transportation with the increasing population and economic revival.Therefore, new ports were build on the Propontic coast. (r. AD 361-363)

• Second la rge of ha rbou r on the Ma rma ra coast was the Theodosia n Ha rbou r which was built by Theodosios I The sea of the Marmara became a natural harbour formed by a large bay here and the Lykos (Bavrarnpasa) Stream flowed in to the

sea.The cities located at a harbour served for both unloading and loading.This is •

why the harbour became a trading place and developed more in socio-economic terms.

The Theodosian Harbour lied within the vegetable gardens called the Blanka today; it was surrounded with walls all around and located in the flat area. Large Vlanga Bostarn (the great garden) is located in Yenikapr.

• Duringthe archaeological excavation at Yenikapi Marmarayconstruction site, it has been learned that istanbul's history dates back further than was previously thought, some 8,500 years. 8,000-year-old skeletons were discovered and with the continuousexcavationsfurther graves have been unearthed. The graves reveal that istanbul used to be home to the earliest settlements during the Stone Age. The skeletons were found in four prehistoric graves.

• There were also remnants of some walls found during the excavations. They are now considered as the first city walls of Istanbul.

U rba n blocks

Bu ilding density is high in Aksaray, Ya!r, Kurkcubasi, Katip Kazrrn parts. But this density is suddenly decreases in centeral part between tra m line and K.Langa street.

Architecture and facades

Urban bloks are mostly granulated in Yali.Katip Kazrrn and Kurkcubas: neigbourhood. Parsel become bigger at the center,Aksa ray district and Cerrahpasa hospital. Land ownership is the key factor in this diversity.
