May 2013 saw Istanbul witness a massive public demonstration. The incident began on 28 May when a small group of environmental activists tried to save Gezi Park, one of the most iconic green spaces in the Taksim district of central Istanbul. The park dates back to the 1940s and is well-known as public promenade. The modest demonstration was triggered by a government decision to reconstruct a former Ottoman Artillery Barracks. Within a few days, it developed into a violent uprising on an unpre- cedented scale lasting almost an entire month. Crowds not only gathered in Istanbul but also in many other Turkish cities such as the capital, Ankara. International media broadcast the protests live from Taksim Square turning the Gezi Park protest into an international phenomenon.

The school, originally named “Galata Sarayi Enderun Mektebi" (Galata Palace Imperial School) is one of the oldest establishments of its kind in the world. Last year, the school proudly celebrated it’s 150th year. After providing valuable services to the Ottoman state for over 350 years, it underwent a modernization process and adopted the French secondary education system in 1868. Up till the end of the First World War in 1918, the school welcomed a diverse student body of different religious and ethnic groups constituting the population of the Ottoman Empire, such as Turks, Arabs, Greeks, Armenians, Jews, Levantines, Bulgarians, Albanians. Many of the graduates of this period, coming from various communities, became prominent statesmen, educators, bureaucrats and writers in Turkey as well as in their home countries. With the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey in 1923, the name was changed to its current name “Galatasaray Lisesi" and it became co-educational in 1965.

  • Architectural and Historic Preservation of Old Houses Baltazzi's Old
    ARCHITECTURAL AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION OF OLD HOUSES BALTAZZI’S OLD PROPERTIES IN ISTANBUL Houses- Appartments - Mansions-Yalis - Hans and Farms Introduction I am happy to have concluded this research which I had in mind for a long time. I was of course encouraged by the positive trend of continuing group research on the history of Levantines. This work is also aimed as a message to encourage the preservation of the architectural and historical heritage of the city of Istanbul and I am grateful for the help from friends and the efficient assistance of my offices in both cities. The Baltazzi famiy, although since the XVIIIth century were living in Izmir have also maintained close relations from that time with the capital Istanbul due to their business activites in finance and banking as well as due their close relations with the Ottoman Court. Some other Levantive and Greek families such as the Whittals, the La Fontaines, the Mavrogordato, the Sevastopoulos to cite a few also acquired a range of proprieties and hade members of these numerous families resident in both cities and various neighbourhoods. 1- HOUSES The emminent authority on Ottoman Banking History Pr. Haydar Kazgan and many other authors mention that the first permission to a foreigner to own a house was given in recognition of the services rendered to the Sultan to my great great grand father the Banker Emanuele Baltazzi around 1850 whereas the official permission for foreigners to own real-estate was granted only in 1867. Where was this house situated? Akylas Millas in his “Pera Crossroads of Constantinople” gives as location the Bonmarche at Istanbul Grand Rue de Pera (today Istiklal Caddesi of Beyoğlu) saying “The Bartoli brothers famous for Au Bon Marche department store occupied the ground floor of a neo-classical building erected in 1870 on the site of the residence of Manolaki Valtadji efendi which burnt in the frequent fires which occurred in Pera”.

  • Galata Experience”
    Uludağ Üniversitesi Mühendislik-Mimarlık Fakültesi Dergisi, Cilt 15, Sayı 2, 2010 AN ARCHITECTURAL DESING STUDIO IN APPROACH: “GALATA EXPERİENCE” Özgür EDİZ* Nilüfer AKINCITÜRK* Yıldız ÇAĞLI* Yasemin ERBİL* Miray GÜR* Haluk ÇETİNKAYA** Abstract: This study has been brought about due to the projects carried out in our country in recent years under the name of “transformation”. We believe it is both valuable and necessary that these transformation projects, which involve individuals who take part in the academic process and who are concerned with studio education, should also be dealt with in the architectural education process. Formed out of this idea, the “architectural design studio” was conceived with the aim of enabling students to “re-think” the above concepts and, by creating various projects in this context, of increasing their “internalisation” and “awareness” of the subject. In this case study, concepts such as urban transformation, urban change and urban environment, which are the “artificial” and, unfortunately, “sterile” concepts mentioned above, are discussed with the “Galata experience” on the basis of the students’ designs. Key Words: Architectural education, design studio, urban transformation, case study, Galata.
