[Uskudar1990]

Theres going to be a third one built?

 

[Allan]

Really?

 

[Kuvvaci]

Yes, a new tower wil be

 

[urbane]

I like the design of the towers. What can be found around them ? Residential, commercial, industrial zones, or green areas ?

 

[Urban Girl]

^^you cant see in these pics but around of them mostly commercial areas, business centers etc..

 

[urbane]

ok, thanks. So I guess it's in an office-park type setting. By the way, I suppose that most towers in Istanbul are located far away from the historical city, right ? Perhaps along major transportation routes such as highways or railways ?

 

[Kuvvaci]

Yes,this area is really away from the historical parts...

Except few (like Süer Plaza :bash: ), skyscrapers are mainly located in Levent and Maslak which are far away from the historical places. Both districts are close to highways.

Levent has a subway connection.

There are also smaller clusters in Þiþli (a bit closer to historical parts) and Kozyataðý (Anatolian Side).

These may give you some idea about Levent and Maslak... Pic features partially Levent, and Maslak at very back.

Thanks System Halted. I am not a big fan of skyscrapers located close to historical centers (like Suzer Plaza is) either. I found Levent on a map and I guess it's quite removed from the old city. I couldn't find Maslak but I suppose that it's close considering the photo you posted.

 

[System_Halted]

^^Omg. It is a very late response sorry!

No. Maslak is even further from the Levent, to the historical sites.

Fixed the links of Faruk

Is there any news on Sabanci Centre 3? Or is it an unlikley dream...?

 

[System_Halted]

If I were Sabanci, I would wait a bit longer. Coz there is a construction boom in Maslak, when you consider business centers and plazas. Then I would build a tower completely different and seperate from the current ones.
