Kadıköy In the statement made by the People's House, it was stated that they wanted more public space and green space, not more concrete and shopping malls, for the AVM/Gar project to be built in Söğütlüçeşme.

Kadıköy People's House stated that nobody gave consent for the shopping mall project to be built in Söğütlüçeşme, and stated that the ministry was stubborn. Emphasizing that Söğütlüçeşme is a disaster assembly area, KadıköyIt was stated that the green area per person in ' is 4 square meters.

Kadıköy The full statement of the People's House is as follows:

More concrete, not shopping malls, more public and green spaces

The Söğütlüçeşme Shopping Center / Train Station Project, which is intended to be built in a way to include Söğütlüçeşme Marmaray, Yoğurtçu Park and Kuşdili Meadow, has recently come to the fore again. Akfen Gayrimenkul, which is a partner of the company that won the tender for the project, announced that they will start the construction of the High Speed ​​​​Train Viaduct within the scope of the Söğütlüçeşme AVM / Train Station project in April. This statement is the announcement that the construction of the viaduct will be tried to be the first step of the station project, whose zoning plan has been canceled before. KadıköyThe needs of the dead are not unplanned, unzoned concrete projects, but green areas and disaster assembly areas.

Nobody has consent, the ministry has stubbornness

The zoning plans of the Söğütlüçeşme Train Station/AVM project prepared by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization in 2019 were canceled by the 29th Administrative Court of Istanbul on 2021 June 13 as a result of the lawsuits filed by the Chambers of City Planners, Architects and Civil Engineers. Although the Ministry revises and suspends the same plan, the project considered in the region is not approved by the court, the people of the region, or the conservation board.

Söğütlüçeşme is not a shopping mall, it is a disaster assembly area!

In the building, which will be designed as a shopping mall, parking lot and station by Akfen Holding, Kadıköy Hasanpaşa Neighborhood has at least two disaster assembly areas. The green area between Marmaray Station and the municipality and on the side of Fenerbahçe stadium is under the threat of disappearance with this project. The need of a city like Istanbul, which is a first-degree disaster area, is to increase the number of disaster assembly areas, not the construction.

Kadıköy4 square meters of green space per capita in

According to the World Health Organization, the green area per capita in cities should be at least 10-15 square meters. The pandemic has also shown that green spaces are the most important need of those living in cities. Contrary to international custom Kadıköy The amount of green space per capita in a district such as 4,03 square meters and if the Söğütlüçeşme Project is built, this amount will fall below 4 square meters. On the one hand, Söğütlüçeşme will be able to breathe and live a healthy life while the Söğütlüçeşme AVM/Marina project is being discussed. KadıköyIt will become impossible for people.

  • We do not want shopping malls in Söğütlüçeşme, Yoğurtçu Park and Kuşdili Meadow.
  • We want the quality of Söğütlüçeşme Marmaray Station to be preserved.
  • A shopping mall project to be built in Söğütlüçeşme is dying due to the economic crisis. Kadıköy will result in the bankruptcy of the business.
  • Not big companies Kadıköy We want local tradesmen to be supported.
  • We want the disaster assembly areas and green areas remaining within the scope of the project to be preserved as they are and to increase the amount of green areas.
  • KadıköyThe parking and traffic problem in Turkey can be solved not by making more parking lots, but by encouraging more public transportation.
