Özet

Cities are complex and dynamic structures that were founded as small settlements and that have continued their development parallel to humankind's development but also contain many problems within themselves. The migration of the growing population in the rural areas to the cities in order to have a better life is effective in the formation of these problems. As one of these cities, Adana, is the fifth largest city of Turkey and has taken continuous migration due to its geographic, topographical and productive agricultural land and its industry since the 1980s. This migration led to increase in urban population and caused the city life to intertwine with the village life. This situation has led the productive agricultural land to open to uncontrolled housing. Today, unplanned urbanization created the slums. One of these slums is the Yavuzlar District in Yuregir, Adana. For this study, authorities from both this district's urban transformation (56 ha) project and TOKI housing and landowners were interviewed. However, it was found that interviewees were not satisfied. Furthermore, during the study a survey was conducted to examine site selection of Yuregir urban transformation project, positive and negative aspects of the project and the views and expectations of the neighborhood residents about the project.
