Haydarpaşa High Speed Train Station: The restoration project of Haydarpaşa Train Station has been accepted. According to the project before the Council of Monuments, Haydarpaşa will be used as a high-speed train station as well as hosting cultural activities.
Haydarpaşa has always been the place of separation and reunification, has brought joy and sadness with its trains. Haydarpaşa was the place where those who loaded their belongings on their backs and migrated from Anatolia to Istanbul stood on their stairs and challenged Istanbul, where bride and groom posed, serials and movies were shot, and staff rushed to the ferry from suburban trains to catch up with their jobs. Its historical structure was the history that continued its life with its bookshelves, cabinets, tables, chairs and armchairs for the 2nd Abdulhamid and Ottoman periods. In any case, Haydarpaşa has always been important to us. When the roof started to burn in November 2010, our hearts came to our mouth. In June 2013, for the maintenance and repair of the rails, Haydarpaşa-Pendik suburban train services were silenced when there was a 24-month break, a longing came and sat in our hearts. Then, the news that Haydarpaşa Train Station will be a hotel and a shopping mall will start to circulate.
