Investigation of problems in areas that have lost value during the urbanization process (Siirt Karakol neighborhood example)

In cities, which constitute the majority of the population, concentration and mobility have occurred with the effect of industrialization. The urbanization caused by this mobility caused social and spatial disorders and brought the need for transformation. In line with this need, urban transformation projects have occurred and resulted in gentrification. In the thesis study, the old and new state of Karakol Neighborhood, which is one of the first settlements in Siirt, was compared and examined and a survey was conducted in the neighborhood. It is observed that the buildings in the neighborhood cannot keep up with the city and begin to lose their value day by day with the urbanization process.
